Disabling access to a function does not affect the options that you previously set
in those functions.
Example:
You previously checked Local Database and Alliance Plus in the Data
Sources Setup dialog. If you clear the Data Source Selection in this dialog, users
still have the ability to search the local and the Alliance Plus databases. They
cannot, however, change those choices.
To limit access, click OK, and Yes to the confirmation message.
To restore the workstation to full operation, select File | Restore Full Access. In
the password dialog, type the password you defined previously, and click OK.
Cataloging saves your password and functionality settings, allowing you to limit
access easily again. Because Cataloging saves the information locally, you can set
up each workstation differently.
Closing and reopening the application does not change its access mode; if you
close Cataloging while access is limited, access is limited when you reopen it.
For Union Catalog Plus: If you run the site application and the union catalog
application on the same workstation, you can set up their Limit Cataloging
Access dialogs differently. The passwords and settings are saved in
separate locations.
Finding MARC records in your collection
Almost every cataloging task starts with a search for a MARC record. Depending
on which Follett applications and products you purchased, you may have several
sources to search for MARC records.
Before you add a new record, it's a good idea to search your library (or union
catalog) database to make certain it doesn't already exist. Duplicate titles can
confuse your patrons, enlarge your database, and skew your statistics. You might
also find an existing record that would require only minor modifications to meet
your needs.
