| |in Koha.
| |
| |Interlibrary
| |loan requests are common
| |especially in academic or
| |special libraries where the
| |enduser or librarian may be
| |entitled to request a book
| |or article from an external
| |library such as the British
| |Library (BLDSS) using their
| |interlibrary loan service.
| |
| |This patch set comes with
| |3 configured backends -
| |BLDSS, Freeform and a Dummy
| |account which is the
| |default for testing. The
| |BLDSS backend allows users
| |to search stock held by the
| |British Library using their
| |api, and allows requests to
| |be placed against it. The
| |Freeform backend allows the
| |creation of Interlibrary
| |loan requests using a
| |manual form.
| |
| |Interlibrary loan requests
| |can be made from the OPAC
| |or from the staff client.
| |The enduser can query the
| |backend database and place
| |requests. Alternatively
| |they can create requests
| |using the manual form.
| |From
| |the OPAC interface endusers
| |can view and comment on
| |their requests if enabled.
| |In the staff client
| |librarians can manage
| |requests placed on the
| |OPAC, processing them
| |against a backend (e.g.
| |British Library).
| |Alternatively the system
| |allows requests to be
| |placed with peer libraries.
| |Peer libraries can be
| |identified by an
| |Organizational patron
| |category type and requests
| |can be sent to the peer
| |library by email.
| |Core
| |request information such as
| |links to borrowers, branch,
| |request status, staff and
| |customer notes, unique
| |identifiers are stored in
| |the database and can be
| |displayed and reported on.
