Include Item Fixed Field 108 (OPACMSG) in the full record display of the app
In our consortium, libraries often use item field 108 OPACMSG to indicate NEW or other information that helps patrons find titles within their library. In the app, in a full record display, that information is not available. Could Innovative work with Solus to pull in that field using the Rest API or by another means? It would shed light on titles and reduce confusion with patrons. (As an aside, this same field could be added to the initial brief display within the Mobile Worklists app as well).

This information (fixed field) is available in the Sierra API as far as I can tell. The enhancement or idea is to have the Solus developer implement it to go live within the Vega Mobile app. We use that field to designate NEW titles which are very popular. They are actually in a diff physical location in the branches so the information is crucial to patrons. Thanks!
