Request Aging

OCLC counts standard working days (Monday-Friday) as system days/working days. OCLC does not count Saturdays and Sundays as system days/working days.

See Categories and queues for descriptions and available actions for the queues in Tipasa.

  • If the Display patron due date setting is turned on in the Patron Settings module of OCLC Service Configuration, the request will appear as Overdue in My Account once the Patron Due Date has passed.  If the setting is not enabled, the request will display as Received by library.  See Patron Request Management for more information. 
  • The Renew option will not be available when the item is overdue.  Staff will be able to renew materials for the user in the staff interface.

Number of days specified in Days To Respond

 Note: WorldShare Interlibrary Loan will not age a request to the next lender until the current lender’s Days To Respond have passed. If you don't act on a request in that time, the system will automatically send it on to the next library in the string or, if there aren't other libraries, it will become an Unfilled request.
