Always have call number appear in search results whether or not there are available copies
The two main pieces of information people need when they are looking for an item are the title and the call number. The call number should ALWAYS appear on search results and any other page following. Right now, the call number only appears in search results if there are available copies. This prevents people from seeing where they could browse for similar titles. Please put call numbers everywhere they need to be.

I understand the issue and use case for this idea, however, I have to show some sympathy and support for the Vega team in relation to this. I don't think it is as simple as just showing the call number in the main display. What if there are different call numbers for items of the same format at different locations? How would Vega decide which call number to display? I guess the call number for each location would have to be shown alongside the location name on search result cards and on work detail pages.
