Add a filter to allow searching of unsuppressed records only
At present, a general search on Sierra brings up all records whether suppressed or unsuppressed. The plus sign next to the search button allows filtering of these results by material type, language, collection etc. but there is no way to just return records for unsuppressed bibliographic records or unsuppressed items. Having the ability to search for unsuppressed bibliographic records means that you do not then have to trawl through copious irrelevant records to find the desired record.

This would be far more efficient. Right now if we have lots of hits, we have to jump to Create List in order to filter those out.

If you could limit the search by "available," (following requesting rules, etc.), that would help.

Forgetting to exclude suppressed records is a constant trap for staff so improved visibility for this would be great. But it would also be nice to have a parameter to exclude item statuses like missing, lost etc
