Marc, Robin and Riley thank you for the assistance. I appreciate it.
The OpacHiddenItems does achieve the result but has the downside that
teachers would need to login to the staff client to search for teaching
resources. Not a show stopper but a small barrier.
Also, when a search returns just one result a 404 page is displayed as
per Bug 9944. Again, not a big problem as this would be a rare occurrence.
Enhancement Bug 10589 would be a great improvement, and has no downsides
that I can see.
Clint.

Hi Clint,
I tested OpacHiddenItems and it works great for that purpose. I will use
it for a similar task.
There is a Bug (enhancement) in the pipeline that allows to show hidden
items to one or more user categories, e.g. for teachers and/or staff members.
Bug 10589 - Override OpacHiddenItems based on Patron Category

I have a situation where a school wants to catalogue their teacher
resources but don't really want them to appear in an OPAC search
alongside the 'regular' library items. I'm not sure that creating a
separate library would be an efficient solution.
Would OpacHiddenItems do it?
The OpacHiddenItems syspref allow the user to define custom rules
for hiding specific items at opac.
YAML syntax is used for defining such rules.
Items can be hidden according to values from the items table:
field: [value1, value2, ...]
Example :
withdrawn: [0, 1]
homebranch: [homebranch1, homebranch2]
