Understanding the Output File

You or your library staff can create an output file when a batch of item records is deleted using Batch Item Delete. Then you can send this file to interested parties. (For example, if your library uses a union catalog, you can send this file to whoever updates the union catalog.) The supported format is driven by the Public Libraries Automated Information Network (PLAIN), and consists of the library code, followed by a carriage return, then the item barcodes of the deleted items, each followed by a carriage return.
