Better Bibliographic Searches within Acquisitions

Description: Currently, on the cataloguing/addbooks.pl page, one can search for records in the catalog and the reservoir; starting from an empty record, one can also access the Z3950 search at cataloguing/z3950_search.pl

But one cannot do a search on catalog + reservoir + Z3950, nor on reservoir + Z3950. That would be helpful for searching external records while doing acquisitions.

Proposition works as follows.

One still starts by selecting a vendor. But on acqui/basket.pl?supplierid=X the search menu is more complex and allows for a search on catalog + reservoir + Z3950.

Search fields: Author / Title / Date / ISBN

Bellow are several tickboxes: catalog / reservoir / Z3950 target #1 / Z3950 target #2 / Z3950 target #n

The search runs on the selected targets.

In the results list (acqui/neworderbiblio.pl):

  • results coming from the catalog are shown just as they are now in 3.0
  • results coming from the reservoir and Z3950 targets: as currently, plus: an "order" link, and a "suggest" link (for that last link, cf RFC Suggestions by staff RFC)
