Sometimes things have to be checked out item-on-fly.
-When you scan the barcode an “item-on-fly” window pops up
-Click “New” (top middle)
-Type title of the item where it says “Type title here” (yes, even though it says call number…trust me – type the title).
-Click next (or press enter)
-Click “Save” (top middle, second button)
-Message “On the fly – return to cataloging” pops up. Click OK
-Due date defaults to 28 days. Alter as necessary.
You can also search for the item by title and/or call number – if a record exists, we may be able to “attach” the system record to a new barcode, rather than checking the item out on-the-fly. Refer questions to a Circ supervisor.
If there is no barcode, attach a new barcode – after looking carefully for an existing one.
