ILL ADMINISTRATION
Chapter 4. BORROWER FUNCTIONS
Browsing By Title
You can browse a list of all active and completed ILL requests submitted by your library as a borrower, using the title of the material requested as the search criteria.
To view the Title List:
-
From the ILL Admin menu (see
The ILL Admin Menu for details),
select Borrower - Title Browse.
- The Borrower’s Title Browse screen displays.
Borrower’s Title Browse Screen
- The list is arranged alphabetically by title, and includes the name of the patron who submitted the request and current status information. If there are two requests with the same title, they are displayed in Request Number order.
- If desired, you can reconfigure, sort and filter table content (see the System Basics User Guide for details).
- Use the browse bar tools to browse the list:
- Use the Pages menu to scroll to a selected page of the list.
- Use the “titles per page” menu to specify the number of titles shown on each page of the list; 25, 50, 100 or 250.
- If the list is more than one page long, use the Previous Page
button
and
Next Page
button
to scroll the
list one page at a time. Use the First Page
button
and
Last Page
button
to scroll to the first or last page
of the list, respectively.
To browse ILL requests by title:
- From the Borrower’s Title Browse screen, enter the title of the requested
item in the Title text box.
- When browsing by title, the system reads the title as a string of characters (rather than as separate words), reading each character from left to right.
- You may enter either a partial or complete title as the search criteria.
- The list updates as you type to display only those titles that match your search term. The first occurrence of the title appears as the first entry in the list.
To view the Full Record Display for an ILL request:
- Click a Title link in the list to display the Full Record for that request.
- To return to the Title Browse screen, click the Go Back button on the Full Record Display.
