We are accustomed to having these fields indexed. They are not being indexed in Discover.
We use 5XX fields for content notes like others have mentioned but also to note that a book has a 'local author' and more recently we have identified 'decodable book' (for readers with dyslexia) by putting these words in the 500 so they can be easily retrieved. We frequently search for words that are used locally in the 500 fields. For us this is 'local enhanced content.'
Not only can we not see the 5XX fields when we view a Discover record, they are not being indexed.
Could we please see the cataloguing we invest in for better discoverability displayed in Discover? Syndetics/Novelist is not the only enriched content that we care about.

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.
