--- Comment #14 from Hugh Rundle <hu...@brimbank.vic.gov.au> ---
The functionality in the items tab is definitely not redundant.

However, it *is* pretty confusing that clicking on the barcode and clicking on
'edit item' take you to two completely different places.

It feels like 'click on barcode' is supposed to take the user to somewhere
useful for circ changes (e.g. changing a item statuses) and clicking on 'edit'
is more designed for cataloguing changes (e.g. updating a call number).
However, this isn't actually consistent: you can't change a Not-For-Loan status
in "Items", for example, which doesn't seem to be very logical.

So I don't have a big problem with removing the tab, as long as there is no
loss of *ease*, and the functional separation between "things circ staff might
need to update" and "things cataloguing staff might need to update" is still
there: i.e. forcing everyone to go into the cataloguing module to update an
item status would be bad, not least because it means all circ staff would need
access to cataloguing.
