Table of Contents

To navigate to the copy status editor from the staff client menu, select Admin → Server Administration → Copy Statuses.

The Copy Status Editor is used to add, edit and delete statuses of copies in your system.

For each status, you can set the following properties:

Holdable - If checked, users can place holds on copies in this status, provided there are no other flags or rules preventing holds. If unchecked, users cannot place holds on copies in this status.
OPAC Visible - If checked, copies in this status will be visible in the public catalog. If unchecked, copies in this status will not be visible in the public catalog, but they will be visible when using the catalog in the staff client.
Sets copy active - If checked, moving a copy that does not yet have an active date to this status will set the active date. If the copy already has an active date, then no changes will be made to the active date. If unchecked, this status will never set the copy’s active date.

Evergreen comes pre-loaded with a number of copy statuses.
