Social media marketing means that library users hear about an author's forthcoming book farther in advance of publication than ever before (sometimes 6-9 months ahead of pub date). This means that library customers start asking to place holds very early and the library orders books far ahead of publication. This is significant to retaining customer loyalty and the library's reputation.
For the on order records not to display in the Discover catalogue is a significant step backwards. I cannot state this more emphatically. Our power users will have to use Classic Catalogue to place holds. Surely, this is not III's intention in creating Discover which is supposed to enhance personalization for customers like the ones I am describing. What a step backwards.
We wonder whether you have understood your customers when system design decisions like this were made. Fundamental services and professional standards are not being understood and built into the design. I hope the developers do not toss the library profession out with the bathwater on the way to implementing Bibframe.
