Other Notes databases can be linked to this opening screen via an Other Resources button. All the main library management functions are here - together with a Research Database which enables the information unit to take research or Information requests from users, allocate them to researchers, manage the time spent, and file the results away. The OPAC has a browse interface with the terms entered bringing the user to an entry in a sorted list from whence you can look at brief records and full records with holdings etc. Notes has a full text engine to search complete records but I could not test this. Once you have records you can request them, or make an acquisitions or ILL requests if not in stock.
Staff can check items out.
When cataloguing, you can choose to include titles in the Union catalogue or not as desired on a title by title basis. A nice feature is the ability to save catalogue records into a folder for later use. Thus you can do a lot of searches and then come back and examine just the ones you found interesting from the folder in more detail. The catalogue covers any user defined material types but serials are covered seprately and must be searched for separately. Individual issues can be viewed and their scanned in tables of contents which may be OCRed and searched using the full text engine.
