Viewing Detailed Information about an Item

You can view detailed information about each item in your library. (For example, you can view cataloging information, such as the item’s title and call number; circulation information, such as the item’s status or borrower details; order information; or information about in‑house use of the item.) You view the information from the Item Detail Status screen in Cataloging.

To view detailed information about an item

1 Open the List Items window for the item that you want to view. (For instructions, see Finding and Opening an Item Record.)
2 Highlight the item whose details you want to view.
3 Click Detail Status.

Horizon displays the Item Detail Status window:

Note: You cannot edit information in the Item Detail Status window. To edit information, you must go to the appropriate process (Cataloging, Circulation, or Acquisitions).

4 Click Page Down to find other information, including in‑house use information.

Note: In‑house use information displays only if your library tracks in‑house use of items by checking in items that are used in your library without being checked out. (For more information on the in‑house mode, see “Setting Up a Checkin Mode” in the “Checkout and Checkin” chapter of the Circulation Guide. For more information about item-specific in‑house information, see “Using Other Horizon Circulation Reporting Options” in the “Reports” chapter of the Circulation Guide.)
