Users often search in a limited scope, such as only searching items in their local library. When they aren’t able find materials that meet their needs in a limited scope, they may wish to repeat their search in a system-wide or consortium-wide scope. Evergreen provides an optional button and checkbox to alter the depth of the search to a defined level.
The button and checkbox are both enabled by default and can be configured in the Depth Button/Checkbox section of config.tt2.
Noteworthy settings related to these features include:
ctx.depth_sel_checkbox
— set this to 1 to display the checkbox, 0 to hide it.
ctx.depth_sel_button
— set this to 1 to display the button, 0 to hide it.
ctx.depth_sel_depth
— the depth that should be applied by the button and
checkbox. A value of 0 would typically search the entire consortium, and 1 would
typically search the library’s system.
