For our libraries, in a consortium, I do think this is critical. We have trained our libraries for years how to use the shortcut codes:
b:xx (library's 2-letter location code)
c:*** (library's scope number)Melissa Landis

We would love to see this expanded as well. As libraries add materials in new formats, such as stem kits, library of things, hotspots, videogames, etc., we've already used the first 3 max item categories for certain formats, which leaves us only max item d for everything else. This means a library that wants to limit to 1 hotspot and 1 stem kit has to choose which one can be automatically limited and which one has to be manually policed at the circ desk. Repurposing our existing categories isn't an option.

We are a consortium of 138 libraries with nearly 800 loan rules. If, for example, we decide to update the grace period for fines (something we've limited to a consortium-wide decision), we would have to update each rule individually.

I agree, we've received numerous complaints about this over the years from our member libraries. For example, a book club has 15 holds for one title, a library with 1 available copy has the title repeated on their paging list 15 times.

A nearly identical idea was previously submitted through Idea Lab and is under review.

This is really important for our specialty items (like library of things and stem kits) where the entire kit contents are listed. Note that we use a "generic" bib record for these and the details are in the public note in the item record.

When we implemented repeated bills for our consortium, one of the first questions asked, was if the bills could have different verbiage, so we would appreciate this feature as well!
