Horizon assigns a circulation status to each item record. (For example, an item can have a status of “checked in,” “checked out,” “lost,” or “on order.”) Horizon comes with some item statuses. You can edit these statuses. You can also add, delete, and edit your own item statuses.
Occasionally your library may need to circulate an item that catalogers have not yet entered into your library database. If circulation staff needs to quickly add an item record at the circulation desk, you can specify the fields that circulation staff must include in the added record.
This section explains these topics:
• | Defining an Item Circulation Type (ITYPE) |
• | Working with Item Statuses |
• | Choosing and Requiring Fields for Item Records |
• | Requiring Fields for Fast-Added Item Records |
