Desired Outcome Goal:
Change the library / database name

Procedure:
Edit library/database name in 3 places:
1. System Administration > Search > Database Definitions > LOCAL > Name:
2. On server, /m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/context/vwebv/ui/<skin>/webvoyage.properties
a. "Connections" section > connect.db.LOCAL.name=
b. "Connections" section > connect.db.groupN.LOCAL.name=
NOTE: The best approach is to consistently name the local database in all these places.

Additional Information

How settings above display:
1. Search and Titles List pages show value in connect.db.LOCAL.name
UNLESS
LOCAL is defined in a remote search group, at which point displays connect.db.groupN.LOCAL.name.
2. Record detail page holdings jump bar ("Held at:") will display SysAdmin "Name" field for the LOCAL db
UNLESS
LOCAL db is defined in a remote search group, at which point it will display the first occurrence of the connect.db.groupN.LOCAL.name.
