Hide Coverage Date for Non-Journals

Hide Coverage Date for Non-Journals

Objective: By default, coverage dates show for all items, including articles and any resource that comes from any database. However, the following code can hide the coverage date. Although this code technically affects all items, it really only makes a difference to articles because Journals still display coverage dates at the top of the full record and the brief results list. Although the class is called "item-status" it has nothing to do with anything else other than coverage.

How to accomplish this: The solution requires the following custom CSS code be added to the /VIEW_CODE/css/custom1.css file:


/* Hide coverage in Item Status area. 
Coverage still shows in brief results for journals and at the top of the full record.*/
.item-status { display: none; }
