On SwapaCD and DVD you get this when you do a search.  I find it very helpful in deciding whether to list or not.

If you add a book to your reminder list it will show the number of copies available.

You can add a book to your reminder list and it will show there how many copies are available in the system -- it doesn't appear anywhere else.

Oops -- Jean and I were typing together -- jinx! smiley
