Report Summary

As I tried to create, test, and document the course reserves workflow, many issues have come out that I have been trying to find workarounds for:

  • Personal copies: Putting on and taking off at end of course, suppressing from Primo, using course restricted option, etc.
  • Recalling an item needed for course reserves
  • Display issues in primo regarding suppressed items still dislaying and course information not displaying
  • Items on reserve for multiple courses
  • Overnight reserves due One Hour after opening
  • How to renew a course that's term has expired






Description

The following recommendations for configuration and workflows have been documented and add to the course reserves page:

  • Personal copies: Putting on and taking off at end of course, suppressing from Primo, using course restricted option, etc.
  • Recalling an item needed for course reserves
  • Overnight reserves due One Hour after opening
  • How to renew a course that's term has expired
  • Setting due date for overnight reserves for ONE HOUR after opening





Action Items

Still in process of figuring out and testing:

  • Display issues in primo regarding suppressed items still displaying
  • Testing display of course restricted
  • Items on reserve for multiple courses–created courses with duplicate readings lists or use searchable IDs?
  • Test and document complete workflow for :
    • Putting Items on Reserve (library and personal)
    • Taking Items Off Reserve (library and personal)
