Hi Greg,

In your current report, how about adding Physical Item Details>Num of Items (In Repository) and filter by "is greater than  1"? You could also add Location>Location Name to see if multiple copies are in different locations.

Hey all,



For the Analytics gurus on the list, I’m curious if anyone is aware of a way to pull a report that displays a list of titles that have more than 1 copy. Titles could multiple editions—just looking for anything that has the same name. It would be great to have a list of every single title without every copy (to reduce the size of the spreadsheet), but if that’s not possible that’s okay.



Some context: we’re doing our annual weeding soon, and want to start our review with potentially removing extraneous copies of books, rather than all instances of a particular title. Our current weeding review list (attached), while not huge, would require a bunch of manual deletion within the spreadsheet to see those multi-copy titles, and if we start to create larger reports, I don’t want to have to rely on said manual deletion.



Thanks!



Greg
