Viewing a Fugitive Facts Record

Once you create a Fugitive Facts record, you can search for and view the record in Information Portal or staff search windows. Generally, you use the same steps as you would for any kind of search in Horizon—keyword, alphabetical, or exact match. This section explains how to access the main Search window and move through various windows until you can view detailed information about the fact that you want.

To view a Fugitive Facts record

1 Start a New Search.

To do this, press F2 or find the process in the Searching folder on the navigation bar.

Horizon displays the Search window:

2 Choose a search option from the Indexes list. (For more information, see “Keyword Searching” or “Alphabetical Searching” in the “Searching” chapter of the Horizon Basics Guide.)
3 Enter your search term in the Search for field.
4 Click OK or press ENTER.

Horizon displays a list of facts that match your search term.

5 Choose an entry that you want more information about.

To choose more than one fact at a time, press ALT and click on each fact that you want to view.

6 Click Show Detail.

Horizon displays a Bib Detail record for the fact.

Note: This Fugitive Facts record can be the same as the one your borrowers view. However, your library chooses which fields display on the Fugitive Facts record for the different PAC flavors. (For more information, see the About Setup.)

7 If you chose to display more than one fact at a time, click Next or Previous Title to see the records for each of the facts you selected.
8 Click Cancel or press ESC to exit the Bib Detail record and all open windows.
