You can configure the fields that display in the brief record, the wording for the availability links, and the services. You can also add local resource types, though there are limitations to this because we're using a Network Zone in SUNY and NZ records are managed centrally. A specific use case may be if you have a teaching collection, and have something like “Teaching Kits,” which you may use an Alma resource type of “Kit” to read “Teaching Kits” so that your education students could search using that resource type.
