This would be extremely valuable when there are multiple libraries and help avoid customer confusion and frustration.

This has been a very useful way to communicate messages to patrons and an efficient and time saving option for staff. It would be extremely helpful for that to carry over to Discover as well so staff could continue to utilize it without having to return to more cumbersome or time consuming work-arounds.

Especially in a consortium setting, this would allow us to open simpler editing work to more staff. It would be a significant time saver for staff overall while allowing us to retain the quality and integrity of the catalog as a whole.

Favoring the 800 field above the 490 would provide a more consistent user experience and help save significant staff time. The current settings that favor the 490 field above the 800 field result in either inconsistent results for users or a significant amount of otherwise unnecessary bib editing by catalogers. The 490 is not a controlled field and not necessarily consistent across different titles in a series - in addition to sometimes being too generic to distinguish one series from another. The 800 field is a controlled field and intended to be a consistent access point across all titles in a series. Ideally, if both an 830 and 800 are present, the 800 is also favored above the 830 - to avoid a generic series (such as Thorndike Large Print) from displaying instead of the title's unique series.
