[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Non cataloged
Does anyone have items that are not cataloged, such as donated paperbacks, and if so , how does Evergreen work with setting parameters or handling the checkout for statistics? Thank you Georgette Georgette Rogers Circulation Supervisor Liberty Lake Municipal Library 23123 E Mission Ave Liberty Lake, WA 99019 509-435-0778 1-866-729-8507
Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Non cataloged
On our checkout screen, we have a drop-down menu with 3 options. One is for regular barcodes, one is for pre-cat items and one is for paperbacks. The paperback option is for non-cataloged paperbacks that we just want to keep stats on. The system records the checkouts, but does not actually put the items on the record. At least, I'm pretty sure that is what is happening. I think this feature is part of Evergreen, but it is possible that Alpha-G Consulting set it up for us when we migrated. Either way, it's a very useful feature. Deanna Frazee Killeen City Library System 205 E.

The system records the checkouts, but does not actually put the items on the record. At least, I’m pretty sure that is what is happening. To elaborate a little, non-cats in EG are not barcoded, and you're able to configure a list of descriptive labels (and loan periods) for however many non-cataloged categories you need, even per-library if desired. These items show up on checkout receipts with a due date and even show up on the patron's account for a while, but once their due dates hit, they fade away. There's no mechanism for registering returns of such material. You''re able to gather statistics on non-cataloged circulations via reporting. Pre-cats are barcoded, but not cataloged (not even with a brief bib record). Temporary title and author information may be stored directly on the item record until such time as it is transferred to a bib record. If a given pre-cat has circulated several times before being cataloged, the bib record it ultimately ends up on will get credit for those circulations. -- Jason Etheridge | VP, Tactical Development | Equinox Software, Inc. / Your Library's Guide to Open Source | phone: 1-877-OPEN-ILS (673-6457) | email: ja...@esilibrary.com | web: http://www.esilibrary.com
