Unlinking a Reserve Title

You can unlink a title from any instructor or course without deleting the record from Reserve Bookroom. Because Title records are linked to both Instructor records and Course records, you must unlink all of the Title records attached to an instructor or course before you can delete the Instructor or Course record from Reserve Bookroom. You may also need to unlink a reserve title if you want to remove the title from one instructor or course, but you want to leave the title linked to another instructor or course. This lets you unlink a reserve title without deleting it from Reserve Bookroom.

Before you unlink a title that is linked to only one course or instructor, make sure that you have withdrawn any items for the title. (For instructions, see Withdrawing an Item from Reserve.) Otherwise, Horizon will not be able to return the record of a library-owned item to the owning location, and you will delete both the Title and Item records from Reserve.
