Bug Description

While researching the background of copy tags, aka digital bookplates, in preparation for an On the Road to 3.0 video series, I encountered this first mention of digital bookplates on the mailing list back in 2010 - http://markmail.org/message/xatxeimhev2y63p4. At that time, the idea was to add a URL to public copy notes so that they could link to a visual representation of a bookplate.

I think the addition of a URL field to our new copy tags would be a worthwhile enhancement to the feature.

Here's a branch that adds the URL field in the DB, IDL and uses it as a link in the OPAC. (NOTE: If you're applying this patch manually, not building a fresh install, don't forget to copy the IDL both to /openils/conf/ and to /openils/var/web/reports/.)

https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/rsteed/lp1721036_add_url_to_copy_tags

One question: Is there any reason we need to treat the URL more carefully, such as using mkurl()?

To answer your question, I would think the html filter would be sufficient here.
