For New Materials, Add an Item Date Option that can be used by Consortias
Consortias often use Item Date to identify 'New Materials' by member library rather than 'Cat Date' or 'First Available Date' at the Bib Level for new titles. Consortias need an option to use an item level date so that 'new materials' can be correctly identified at the member library level.

This is critical for us as a consortium, since as it stands, our libraries can't construct a new titles saved list, since it includes items that are not new for them or in some cases roll-ups where they don't even own the version of the edition that is new in that case. Please allow for this option for consortia!

Agreed, this is essential for patrons in a consortium. The Bib Date is not the actual date for new materials.
