Why do I not see local availability data appearing on an article record in Discovery?
Symptom
-
There is no Call Number, Check Out Status, or Shelving Location appearing on an article record in WorldCat Discovery.
-
Discovery says you own a record, but it has no local availability displayed, even though there is a local holdings record (LHR) on the journal title in Record Manager.
Applies to
- WorldCat Discovery
Resolution
The LHRs only show on the Discovery article record when the LHRs are attached to the journal holding with the highest number of library holdings. The record with the most worldwide holdings becomes the 'representative' record, and the logic picks that one to decide whether to attach LHRs to the Discovery article record.
