Staff need the full bibliographic description to pinpoint the exact item a patron is looking for (which translation of the book is it? Which actor is in this version of the movie?). Patrons are using our catalog more as a means to find an exact book, movie, etc., and less as a browsing tool.

Because there can be over 100 libraries listed as owning a popular item in our consortium, our library patrons would need to scroll to the middle of that list to get to see whether our library owns that item (our library name begins with the letter, N). Having our library float to the top of the list would be extremely helpful to improve the user experience. Removing the necessity to click on "more" to see all the libraries that own an item would also be a big help.
