Yes and no, depending on the situation. If a patron tries to check out an item but their transaction period interferes with the reservation, then they will not be able to check the item out. However, if the transaction does not collide with the reservation, then they can still check out the item. Check out our articles on the Reservations tab in Librarian and placing a reservation through Search for more information.
Yes! As long as the reservation is placed for a date that the item will be available, such as after the due date of the current check out period, then there is no issue with placing reservations for items currently checked out.
Patrons can place a reservation up to 90 days in advance.
As long as there are no conflicting dates between the reservations, there is no limit to how many reservations an item can have!
Yep! You can set copies to in processing (i.e. checked out to the In Processing system patron #7) if they’re in your library but aren’t ready to be placed on shelves yet. They will automatically be marked as unavailable in Researcher, but you can hide them if you’d like. In Builder Preferences, check the In Processing box on the Auto-Hide tab.
First, go to the top right corner of the window and log in to your account. Next, search for and select an item, then click on the rating stars in the center of the window to view the reviews.
To select a new pane, go to Builder>Researcher, Display Tab, and look for the Explore Panes section. Here you’ll find the Researcher Hub setting; you can select the pane you want from here.
If you want to change the pane itself, go to Builder>Explore Builder, and make the changes to the appropriate Explore Pane.
That’s all done through Explore Builder! And you set which ‘pane’ you want to show in Explore (or Search, or Researcher hub) in Builder.
