Find examples of how Stockitem, ILL, and Reservation records display in Amlib.

Stockitem Record

ILL Record

 

Reservation Record

Reservations are created with a default Status of ILLS:

  • Select Item > CurrentReserves on the Stockitem screen of the ILL item to access the Stockitem Reservations screen for these details:

 Note: It is possible for patrons to change the Location Pick-up for any reservation (including ILLs) via the NetOPACs at any point prior to the patron being sent a Reservation collection notice (done via RepReservations with the Update Status on the notice set to Y).

Staff can also change the Location Pick-up point (at any time) by using the F7 CollLoc button on the Stockitem Reservations screen above.

  • If a Borrower has exceeded their reservation limit an error message will appear. The Stockitem and ILL records will still be created, but no reservation will be created. Click the OK button
