Multi-Library Report Results
When the multi-library report results are returned, there are several ways you can orient yourself to the page, navigate, and manipulate the view of the data to review the results.
Results Page Header
There are a number of elements that make up the header of every Multi-Library Report results page.
Bibliographic Information
The top of the report gives you all the information on the titles in the ISBN cluster you selected, including details like: contributors, publisher, pub date, and languages.
Clicking the info button to the left of any ISBN will bring up a pop-up with more detailed information such as item status, product form, BISAC subject category, volume, edition, languages, illustrations, and awards. Details are supplied only if they are available in the title's bibliographic record.
Multi-Library Circulation Results
The results page varies depending on which report you choose. While the header information remains the same. In this section, we'll explore the Multi-Library Book Activity Report. To see the Week by Week report, click here.
You will automatically be shown Lifetime results in your Multi-Library Book Activity Report but you can select specific time periods from the drop-down menu, which will update the data displayed in the graph.
