Management of imports

This page lets you manage the import of data linked to records or copies.

The procedure is composed of different steps :

• Definition of import parameters :
  
  for the records:
  
  
  • ISBN mandatory
  • Verification of duplicates on ISBN (if yes, new entries will not be created for existing records)
  • Updating records (on identical ISBN)
  • Ignoring ISSN (for periodicals)
  • Status of records (in order to precisely identify imported records)
  
  for the copies:
  
  
  • Lender (ex: Public Library)
  • Status of copies (ex: "being imported")
  • Location of the copies
  • Mandatory call number
  • Conformity between Code 995 and your library collections for types of materials, statistical codes and sections
• Downloading files,
• Importing records or copies,
• For copies, tagging of the imports to check conformity between loan listing and copies actually received.

You can perform this check very quickly by using a barcode scanner.
