- From the Main window select Search Z39.50 to open the Z39.50 search window. Do a search of the CUL catalog to find the item being requested in our system. Clicking on an item will automatically import that item's call number, location and availability to the Item Call # field and Self Location field. Use the macro copy over the other needed information to the Item Edit window.
- As you can see in figure 8.2 the call number, location and availability has been copied over from the Z39.50 search. It is now time to place the request into its proper queue to continue processing.
|
Note:The macro will ask for different pieces of information that can be copied over to the Item Window. If you wish not all of the information has to be changed. Please see Appendix D Macros for Ares for more information on this macro. |
|
Alternative Method: Instead of using the Z39.50 search feature in Ares you can use the on-line catalog. |
