Main Reasons for a Selector to Use Collection Manager

    1. Review your “Book Form” (Approval) report(s). *You must review your new Book Form reports from Tuesday-Sunday each week!
    2. Search for an item originating outside your BBS lists.
    3. Select books from your “Form Form” (Firm Order) report(s).


  • Selecting Titles from Your “Form Form” Reports

    1. On the main menu page, click “Reports.”
    2. Click “Review Reports.”
    3. You should see “Form Form” and “Book Form” reports for each E-Notes subscription you have sent to Collection Manager.
    4. Choose a “Form Form” report to review by clicking on the “Report Name” NOT the “File Name.”
    5. Check the boxes next to the titles you wish to request. *If you see a yellow box with a check mark ( ) or a box with a blue “O” ( ) under the title information, the book has already been requested or ordered! DO NOT REQUEST AGAIN!
    6. To request all the items you have checked, first click “List all tagged titles” at the top of the report. *Do not click “Request All.” You will now only see a list of all the titles you have checked. Now click “Request All.”
    7. A new screen will pop up:
    o Check “Request.”
    o In the customer code field enter your specific code (i.e. JUFG-F) (capitalize) This box is case sensitive!
    o Enter the fund (i.e. 05020001-yyyy) in the fund field
    o Enter the location (i.e. FLGA) in the location field. The location is the OCLC code for the appropriate library.
    o Re-check all information entered. It is important that the information in this screen is valid for all the records selected, because this information will be overlaid on all the records. Make sure that the quantities requested, fund, and location are all the same.
    1. Click only once on “Request!” at the top of the window.
    2. A ( ) should appear next to the titles.

    *** Be sure to click “untag all” at the end of each session or when you login in again since titles will remain in the “tagged titles” list until they are removed. Note: This function will not remove the “Requested” status from the titles, it will only remove the titles from the list.

    Searching For an Item Originating Outside Your BBS Lists

    1. Go to “Search for titles” in the “Searching” menu.
    2. On the “Basic Search” screen enter title, author, ISBN, etc.
    3. Click the “Search” button.
    4. To select an item you wish to order, follow steps 5-7 from the above section Selecting Titles from Your “Form Form” Reports.
