Re: No Copies Available

[Alejandro Garza Gonzalez <alejandro dot garza at itesm dot mx>]

For electronic copies (ejournals, netLibrary ebooks) we created a 
"Digital Library" location, and added items with "-" istatus. The URL is 
also inside the item and not in the bib record.

We also recieve MARC records from serials solutions and have 9XX fields 
so that the items will be created automatically with their URL when 
loaded into Millennium.

Now... on changing "No items available", we are having some trouble with 
users not realizing they can place holds, so we are thinking about 
changing it =)
