            Bug ID: 14305
           Summary: Public way to look at the Opac of different branches
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement

We now have a way to target news to different branches. But as a patron you can
only look at news for "all libraries" + when signed in "all libraries + your
specific branch". Since news for specific branches seem like a thing that is
obviously public information we need to create a way to display switch branch
without registering for a new branch while logged in. 

I see two approaches: 

* Seeing news as a widget and switch branch while staying on the same page.
This is easily solved with a drop down or something similar. 

* Add real navigation for switching branch. Since we now have unique
identifiers for the body-tag in order to be able to brand each branch with a
different CSS this might look like the natural order. 


(I do feel that the widget approach still have it's merits. I have seen some
good consortia solutions where the starting page is the same for all and you
load it with ajax components that can expose branch specific information like
opening hours, searches etc. Any help in sorting out how to proceed is
welcome..  I recall that there is a bug for a public calendar, and if you also
take into account calendar, creating events that show up in both calendar and a
separate news-flow, expanding CMS-functionality this might require some
thinking)
