Changing Reserve Item Records

You can edit Item records for items after you place them on reserve or at the same time you place them on reserve. (An Item record represents a specific copy of a title.) When you place an item from your library catalog on reserve, you create a Reserve record for the item. After you place the item on reserve, you can edit information about the item. (For example, if you have more than one reserve location, you may need to change the reserve location.) This is also important if you need to change the item type (ITYPE) in order to change the loan period or other circulation privileges. (For example, you may let borrowers check out a book for two months from the main location, but for only one week or five hours from the reserve location.) You can also assign an owner to an item. (An owner is any individual or institution that owns an item.)
