The Title Detail page gives users more in-depth information about each title. Visitors to a Title Detail page will see different things depending on their user type and access level.

Publishers who want to know how their data gets from an ONIX file to a CataList page can refer to the ONIX for BNC CataList documentation.

Page Data sources

Most of the data that displays on the Title Detail page is provided by publishers and distributors to BIblioShare, in ONIX format. Publishers who want to know how their data gets from an ONIX file to a CataList page should read the ONIX for BNC CataList documentation.

Publishers can also manually add some pieces of data using the CataList title editing tools, and supplemental data like samples, excerpts and interior images.

Stock availability

On the Title Detail page, you can also see stock availability details. If distributors supply their price & availability position files to BiblioShare, CataList will now display that information on the Title Detail page. For more information on supplying position files to BIblioShare, contact the team at biblioshare@booknetcanada.ca.

When available, this information is included in the new Stock Availability section, which is by default collapsed. Expand the section to see the following information for the title:

  • Distributor Name

  • On Hand

  • Stock Quantity

  • Discount Code

  • Price

  • Last Updated

Stock availability details are visible to Publisher, Retailer, Library, Sales Agent, and Wholesaler accounts. This feature does not display on titles that have a publication date of more than 60 days in the future.
