Comment 6 for bug 1781480

Hi Mike,

I'm trying to understand the downside to including the badge data in copy location groups. I'm confused as to why badge data for another org unit will show up in copy location group searches.

As an example, we have a copy location group that allows patrons to search just our academic libraries that contains Copy locations owned by our all of our academic libraries. Let's say we have a consortium with a structure like this:

- CONS
 -- Evergreen University
   -- EU Main Campus Library
   -- EU Satellite Campus
 -- Spruce College
   -- Spruce College Library
 -- Hemlock Public Library
   -- Hemlock Main Branch
   -- Hemlock West
   -- Hemlock East
 -- Douglas Public Library
   -- Douglas Library

We create an academic-themed copy location group that includes copy locations owned by EU Main Campus Library, EU Satellite Campus, and Spruce College Library.

When searching this copy location group, I would be okay with badge data appearing for any badges owned by the consortium, by any of the academic library systems, or by any of the three academic library branches.

Are you saying that badge data might display for badges owned by one of the public systems? One circumstances would lead to that happening?

In our case, all of the badges are owned by the consortium, so I think we would be okay with seeing the badge data for ancestor org units, but I want to understand the situations where other org unit data would be leaking in before I give a +1 to it.
