The Item Availability Status API returns the availability status of the item in SCSB. It is likely to be used in partner ILS' Discovery systems to retrieve and display item statuses. It allows multiple status retrieval by sending in multiple barcodes separated by commas.
The API returns the availability status of an item as "Available" or "Not Available". An error message gets generated if the barcode is not existing in SCSB - "Item Barcode doesn't exist in SCSB database"
