[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Non cataloged

2010-12-10 Thread Georgette Rogers
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

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.

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.
