Add function to look up by call numbers

mhucka opened this issue · comments

The library staff would like a way to get the records for items that span a range of call numbers. My current thinking is that it would work roughly like this:

  1. user selects a range of cells in the spreadsheet containing barcodes
  2. Boffo looks up all the items
  3. Boffo determines which call numbers are the bounds of the range of call numbers covered by the selected cells
  4. Boffo does a Folio lookup based on wildcarding the call numbers, somehow

A version of this is implemented in 1.6.0. I'm going to call this done.
