One of the limitations to Bitlocker is that it's a flat database. Within that limitation, however, you can sort the database by any series of fields you choose and arrange the resulting report according to fields selected. We have used Bitlocker to help plan our reference book budgets. We can also coordinate our continuations lists more readily with vendors by e-mailing them published reports of titles. You can design reports easily in Bitlocker.
All predefined reports appear as hyperlinks attached to the description of the database they use.
Each database description includes links to specific reports. Downloads are sent as zipped files, but you can use any number of free or low-cost programs to unzip them into spreadsheets or word processing documents. The ability to share reports via e-mail is an advantage of an ASP like Bitlocker. Reports and lists can be set to various levels of public or private access, so that only certain staff members are authorized to change data while many others can view the data. Everyone has separate lines of communication family, professional associations, library committees that aren't universally known.
