Unfilled |
Borrower’s request has been submitted to all lenders in the Lender List, and has not/will not be filled by any lender or was changed to Unfilled after the deadline has expired. You may respond to an Unfilled request by selecting one of the following options from the Status menu: NOTE: Borrower’s Full Record Displays for requests with a status of Unfilled may include a Rebuild Lender List button (see Full Record Display for details). The Rebuild Lender List function allows library staff to use the existing source record for an ILL Request to rebuild the Lender List and automatically resubmit the ILL Request (see Rebuilding a Lender List for details).
NOTE: The Full Record Display for requests with a status of Unfilled includes a For Patron: Why Request was not Filled field. Text entered in this field is viewable by the patron through the ILL Request Tracking feature. Text is displayed to the patron in the Status field under the heading Note from library staff. This field is intended to allow library staff to inform the patron of the reason(s) the request was not filled. NOTE: For libraries participating in the Inter-System Sharing Initiative (ISSI): If your library has not enabled the Automatically Send To ISSI Lenders option in the Library ISSI Configuration for your library (see Configuring Library-Level ISSI Options for details), Status menus on the Unfilled Status Browse List and the Status Options menu on Full Record Displays for requests with a status of Unfilled include a Send to ISSI option. Selecting this option sends the unfilled request(s) to up to 20 ISSI lenders (see Sending Unfilled/Retry Requests to ISSI Lenders for details). |
Midnight Processing moves request to Expired after Need by date for the request has passed. |
