How do I make a campus library collection or shelving location unavailable

Applies to

• WMS Circulation

Answer

Here are a few things your library can do to make a collection unavailable in the Service Configuration.

• Adjust the OPAC Status mapping to make items shelved in X location (e.g., Rare Book Room)  appear unavailable in WorldCat Discovery and suppress fulfillment options.
• Add a Shelving Location Message to WorldCat Discovery to explain that the collection cannot be browsed; requests can't be placed, etc.
• Make items ineligible for hold requests by creating a new or editing a Collection Type Policy for Non-Circulating collections and ensuring that no pickup options are found in the Hold Pickup Locations Map.
