Collapsed, Expandable Lists for Multiple Issues
The latest UFDC has many new behind the scenes improvements and many others are planned. In addition to infrastructure work, the latest release includes a few forward-facing improvements as well. For instance, items with multiple issues–like newspapers–now show with collapsed lists of issues. For instance in dLOC’s newspaper subcollection, what would have once taken 19 lines for the 19 issues of 7 Días del Diario de la Marina en el Exilio now takes only one line with:
+ 7 días del Diario de la marina en el exilio ( 19 issues )
The “+” sign allows users to expand the list without going to a new page. While it may not be noticed for a bit, UFDC also added a printer friendlier stylesheet to help ensure less paper use when printing.
