This bookmarklet will allow you to jump from instance records in FOLIO Inventory to their corresponding record pages in the Blacklight catalog.
Installation
To use this, you have to add the bookmarklet to your web browser. A bookmarklet works the same way as a regular browser bookmark, except that instead of a URL, it contains a chunk of Javascript code that performs an action. The easiest way to add it to your browser is to drag this button --
-- into your browser Favorites bar (if you have one).
If that doesn't work, you can try the following:
- Right-click on the button above and copy the link.
- Create a new bookmark from scratch in your browser. The easiest way to do this is to bookmark a web page – it doesn't matter which.
- Edit the bookmark you created in step 2, replacing its URL with the link contents that you copied in step 1.
You can place the bookmarklet anywhere in your bookmarks collection, but it's simplest to place it in your Favorites bar for quick access.
Using the bookmarklet
Using the bookmarklet is straightforward. If you are viewing an instance record in FOLIO's Inventory, click the bookmarklet link in your Favorites bar or bookmarklet collection. The browser should immediately load the corresponding Blacklight record page.
If you click the bookmarklet on any page other than an Inventory instance record, nothing will happen.
If you need help installing or using the bookmarklet, contact Matt Connolly.
