Scope: This procedure provides instructions for running automated import, export, cleanup, reporting and various related jobs using scripts found in LS Tools web site and other tools created by the Library Systems Office and LTS Batch Processing staff. For issues surrounding the scheduling of large batch loads, please consult Bulk Loading: Scheduling (#46d). Unless otherwise noted, the items listed below are descriptions of scripts and tools found on LS Tools. Jobs may include scripts known as "mod jobs" run from a staff member's individual LS Tools folder, as opposed to scripts that are accessible directly from the LS Tools web interface. Non-LS Tools jobs are most commonly referred to as "manual" jobs. For information on staff batch job assignments, please refer to the Bulk Loading: List of Jobs (#46c).
