1.1. Introduction

Introduction

The NC Cardinal consortium consists of multiple counties and their libraries joining forces to offer better support amongst their peers, offer more material for their patrons, and to create everlasting results that make each library valuable.

NC Cardinal’s mission is to provide, maintain and continually develop an efficient, sustainable ILS for public library users and library staff within North Carolina. The establishment of the NC Cardinal consortium promotes a single vision for providing library services and access to library materials for North Carolina library users.

The Resource Sharing section is to provide guidance and best practices for NC Cardinal's resource sharing aspect of the consortium. This is a live document that may need to be amended in the future as the consortium grows into a larger entity.

1.2. Holds

 Holds

Holds Levels
Evergreen has five different levels of holds. Library staff can place holds at all five levels, while patrons can only place meta-record, title-level holds, and parts-level holds. The chart below summarizes the five levels of holds.

Hold level	Abbreviation	When to use	How to use	Who can use	Hold tied to
Meta-record	M	Patron wants first available copy of multiple titles of the same/different format	Click on place hold next to the title. From holds confirmation screen, click Advanced hold options and select other applicable formats.	Patron or staff	Holdings attached to multiple MARC (title) records sharing the same title and author of selected format(s)(book, video, audiobook, etc.)
Title	T	Patron wants first available copy of a title	Staff or patron click on place hold next to title.	Patron or staff	Holdings attached to a single MARC (title) record
Parts	P	Patron wants a particular part of title (e.g. volume or disk number)	Staff or patron selects part on the create/edit hold screen when setting holds notification options.	Patron or staff	Holdings with identical parts attached to a single MARC (title) record.
Volume	V	A call number specific volume of a title is required	Staff click place hold on any items shown in holdings list, next to the call number.	Staff	Holdings with identical call numbers owned by the same library and attached to a single MARC (title) record.
Copy	C	Patron or staff want a specific copy of a title	Staff click details to view barcode then place hold next to that barcode.	Staff	Specific Item barcode

1.3. Generating a Holds Pull List

Generating a Holds Pull List using the XUL client :

Resource sharing is a huge part of what NC Cardinal is about; the sharing of material within the consortium to its patrons. After a library system has joined, migrated, and begun utilizing the ILS, they are permitted to start resource sharing. Within a library system, each branch can now utilize the pull list within Evergreen to gather its local patron’s’ holds and consortium holds as well.

Here is an example of what a library's pull list could look like using the XUL client:

In order to generate a pull list:

1) On the home interface of your system’s Evergreen screen, choose the “Circulation” tab at the top. This will generate a pull down list of tasks.
2) Choose the task “Pull list for Hold Requests”. This should be performed by each and every branch now that you are a part of NC Cardinal.

This screen lists what your patrons have requested as well as what other consortium branch patrons have requested from your particular library.

A small library branch should generate a pull list at least once a day. Medium to larger sized libraries should generate multiple pull lists daily so that a reasonable workflow is established. The library system or each individual branch can choose from three different ways to configure the pull list screen to their liking:

Using the Print Full Pull List - Quick and easy printed pull list that contains the following fields:  Title, Author, Shelving Location, Call Number, and Item Barcode. This method uses less paper than the alternate strategy.
Using the Print Full Pull List (Alternate Strategy) - Pull list with same fields as Print Full Pull List but also includes the Patron Barcode. This list will also first sort by copy location.
Using the Simplified Pull List - Allows for staff to choose what fields to print and the order to print them by using the Column Picker (right click anywhere in the column header). Print the pull list in landscape for larger print and easier to view.

NC Cardinal recommends using the Simplified Pull List for daily pull lists due to more flexibility and choices of holds information.

Here is a Print Full List (Alternate Strategy):

Here is a Simplified Pull List using a Column Picker, from Forsyth County:

Right click anywhere in column header line to obtain Picker.

This is the end result after choosing columns and priority of tabs.

Generating a Holds Pull List using Webby :

To retrieve your Holds Pull List using Webby, select Circulation → Pull List for Hold Requests.

The Holds Pull List is displayed. You may re-sort it by clicking the column labels, e.g. Title. You
can also add fields to the display by using the column picker.

Column adjustments will only affect the screen display and the CSV download for the holds pull list. It will not affect the printable holds pull list.

The following options are available for printing the pull list:
• Print Full Pull List prints Title, Author, Shelving Location, Call Number and Item Barcode. This
method uses less paper than the alternate strategy.
• Print Full Pull List (Alternate Strategy) prints the same fields as the above option but also
includes a patron barcode. This list will also first sort by copy location, as ordered under Admin
→ Local Administration → Copy Location Order.
• Download CSV – This option is available from the List Actions button (adjacent to the Page "#"
button) and saves all fields in the screen display to a CSV file. This file can then be opened
in Excel or another spreadsheet program. This option provides more flexibility in identifying
fields that should be printed.

With the CSV option, if you are including barcodes in the holds pull list, you will need to take
the following steps to make the barcode display properly: in Excel, select the entire barcode
column, right-click and select Format Cells, click Number as the category and then reduce the
number of decimal places to 0.
8. You may perform hold management tasks by using the Actions dropdown list.
The Holds Pull List is updated constantly. Once an item on the list is no longer available or a hold
on the list is captured, the items will disappear from the list.

NC Cardinal Recommendation :The Holds Pull List should be printed
at least twice a day.

1.4. Holds Process and How Billing is Handled

1.5. Pulling and Capturing Cardinal Hold

Capturing Holds : 

Using Webby to capture holds : 

Once you have physically located the material on the pull list on your shelves, you will next capture the hold within Evergreen.

A. Select Circulation from menu bar → Capture Holds.

B. Scan or type barcode and click Submit.

C. A hold slip is automatically printed. If your workstation is not setup for silent printing (via Hatch), then a print window will appear.

D. If the item should be sent to another location, a hold transit slip will be printed. If your workstation is not setup for silent printing (via Hatch), then a print window will appear.

Using XUL to capture holds :

Once you have physically located the material on the pull list on your shelves, you will next capture the hold within Evergreen.

1. Select Circulation from menu bar → Capture Holds.

     2. Scan or type barcode and click Submit

     3. A hold slip is automatically printed.

     4. If the item should be sent to another location, a hold transit slip will be printed.

Hold Status Types :

There are five status types a hold may have: Waiting for Copy, Waiting for Capture, In Transit, Reserved/Pending and Ready for Pickup.

1) Waiting for copy: all hold-able copies are checked out or not available.

2) Waiting for capture: an available copy is assigned to the hold. The item shows up on the Holds Pull List waiting for staff to capture the hold.

3) In Transit: hold is captured at a non-pickup branch and is on the way to the pick-up location.

4) Reserved/Pending: Hold has been captured for patron at the pick-up library;
the status will automatically change to Ready for Pickup after a period of time – For example, CCPL has chosen 5 minutes as the time-frame to allow staff to place the item on the Holds Shelf. 

5) Ready for pickup: Item is on the hold shelf ready for pickup; this status will also display in patron’s record online.

1.6. Managing Holds

Managing Holds

Holds can be cancelled at any time by staff or patrons. Before holds are captured, staff or patrons can suspend them or set them as inactive for a period of time without losing the hold queue position, activate suspended holds, change notification method, phone number, pick-up location (for multi-branch libraries only), expiration date, activation date for inactive holds, etc. Once a hold is captured, staff can change the pickup location and extend the hold shelf time if required.

Staff can edit holds in either patron’s records or the title records. Patrons can edit their holds in their account on the OPAC.

If you use the column picker to change the holds display from one area of the staff client (e.g. the patron record), it will change the display for all parts of the staff client that deal with holds, including the title record holds display, the holds shelf display, and the pull list display.

Actions for Selected Holds

1. Retrieve the patron record and go to the Holds screen.
2. Highlight the hold record, then select Actions. 

   3. Manage the hold by choosing an action on the list.

   a. If you want to cancel the hold, click Cancel Hold from the menu.

       You are prompted to select a reason and put in a note if required. To finish, click Apply.

A captured hold with a status of On Hold Shelf can be cancelled by either staff or patrons. But the status of the item will not change until staff check it in.

b. If you want to suspend a hold or activate a suspended hold, click the appropriate action on the list. You will be prompted to confirm your action. Suspended holds have a No value in the Active? column.

Suspended holds will not be filled but its hold position will be kept. They will automatically
become active on the activation date if there is an activation date in the record. Without
an activation date, the holds will remain inactive until staff or a patron activates them
manually.

c. You may edit the Activation Date and Expiration Date by using the corresponding action on
the Actions dropdown menu. You will be prompted to enter the new date. Use the calendar
widget to choose a date, then click Apply. Use the Clear button to unset the date.

d. Hold shelf expire time is automatically recorded in the hold record when a hold is filled. You
may edit this time by using the Edit Shelf Expire Time on the Actions dropdown menu. You will
be prompted to enter the new date. Use the calendar widget to choose a date, then click Apply.

e. If you want to enable or disable phone notification or change the phone number, click Edit
Notification Settings. You will be prompted to enter the new phone number. Make sure you
enter a valid and complete phone number. The phone number is used for this hold only and
can be different from the one in the patron account. It has no impact on the patron account.
If you leave it blank, no phone number will be printed on the hold slip. If you want to enable
or disable email notification for the hold, check Send Emails on the prompt screen.

f. Pickup location can be changed by clicking Edit Pickup Library. Click the dropdown list of all
libraries and choose the new pickup location. Click Submit.

Staff can change the pickup location for holds with in-transit status. Item will be sent in
transit to the new destination. Staff cannot change the pickup location once an item is on
the holds shelf.

g. The item’s physical condition is recorded in the copy record as Good or Mediocre in the Quality
field. You may request that your holds be filled with copies of good quality only. Click Set
Desired Copy Quality on the Actions list. Make your choice in the pop-up window.

Transferring Holds

1. Holds on one title can be transferred to another with the hold request time preserved. To do so, you need to find the destination title and click Mark for: → Title Hold Transfer.

2. Select the hold you want to transfer. Click Actions → Transfer to Marked Title.

Cancelled Holds

1. Cancelled holds can be displayed. Click the Recently Cancelled Holds button on the Holds screen.
   

2. You can un-cancel holds.

Based on your library’s setting, hold request time can be reset when a hold is un-cancelled.

Retargeting Holds

Holds need to be retargeted whenever a new item is added to a record, or after some types of item
status changes, for instance when an item is changed from On Order to In Process. The system
does not automatically recognize the newly added items as available to fill holds.

1. View the holds for the item.
2. Highlight all the holds for the record, which have a status of Waiting for Copy. If there are a lot of holds, it may be helpful to sort the holds by Status.
3. Click on the head of the status column.
4. Under Actions, select Find Another Target.
5. A window will open asking if you are sure you would like to reset the holds for these items.
6. Click Yes. Nothing may appear to happen, or if you are retargeting a lot of holds at once, your screen may go blank or seem to freeze for a moment while the holds are retargeted.
7. When the screen refreshes, the holds will be retargeted. The system will now recognize the new items as available for holds.

1.7. Transit Items

Transit Items

Evergreen’s In Transit feature tracks items transferring among branches. It allows patrons to return items at any branch and for holds to be placed on items at other branches.

When will an item go In Transit?

1. When an item is checked in at a non-owning branch the status changes to In Transit. A transit slip may be printed.
2. When a hold is captured for an item with a pickup branch other than location at which the hold is captured, the item’s status will be changed to In Transit. If the hold is captured from the Check In screen, a prompt to print the Transit/Hold slip will display. If the hold is captured from the Capture Holds screen, a Transit/Hold slip will be printed automatically.   

Receiving In Transit Items

All items received through transit must be checked in by the receiving branch. This changes the items' statuses from In Transit to Reshelving or Ready for Pickup.

Transit List 

The Transit List report may be used as a tool to help manage your incoming and outgoing transits.

To access and use the Transit List report:

1. Select Admin → Local System Administration → Transit List.

   2. Specify Transit to or Transit from library.

   3. Choose a Start Date and End Date for transit activity.

   4. Transits should automatically load.

   5. Items with an In Transit status for the selected time period are listed.

Aborting Transits

Transits may be aborted (cancelled) from multiple locations within Evergreen.

Use when processing missing in transit items or a patron requests an item that has just been returned and is in transit to its home library for reshelving. This procedure can be performed from the Transit List or from the Item Status screen.

1. Select the transit(s) to cancel.
2. Select Cancel Transit
3. The transit is cancelled, but will still display in the list.
4. Click Retrieve Transits. The screen will refresh and the cancelled item(s) will no longer display as transits.

Cancelling Transits at Checkout

Items with a status of in transit trigger a notification when an attempt is made to check them out. To allow in transit items to be checked out, override the block by clicking Abort Transit on the alert screen. Proceed by clicking Checkout.

Cancelling Transits from Item Status

Items with a status of in transit trigger a notification when an attempt is made to check them out. To allow in transit items to be checked out, override the block by clicking Abort Transit on the alert screen. Proceed by clicking Checkout.

1. Click Item Status or hit F5
2. Scan Item barcode
3. Right click on the item and select Abort Transit
4. At Aborting Transits pop-up, click Yes
5. The item now has the status Reshelving.

2.1. Library Hub

In NC Cardinal, each library system has a “hub” library, usually the main branch of that particular system. The hub handles all material to be sent out to other library systems’ hubs and any material coming to its own library system. Within multiple branch library systems, resource sharing is already prevalent amongst the branches, so a courier service of some sort is present. This courier service will still be used within each system and material being requested from a consortium branch library will be sent to the hub for shipping. Time differs with each system as to when courier services are used during the week (some systems have courier runs on Mondays and Thursdays while others have it Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday).

The hub of a library system will also usually house the contact person who is in charge of shipping/ receiving consortium materials. The contact person works with the mail service NC Cardinal uses for its handling of material. At this time, we are under contract with UPS. Each library system should have a backup in case the contact person is not present for a long period of time.

Each hub should have a space that is designated to accommodate for the shipping/receiving of consortium materials. Some hubs have a room that is used to process these materials while other systems may not have a large space to perform these daily tasks. It will be left up to the hub to decide on how this is arranged. Shelving can be a great way of storing the day’s pull list items or even separation of library system’s requests. If possible, a table of sorts can work nicely as a base for a scale, packaging tape, and other materials. A computer with a printer should be nearby to create your package labels.

3.1. Creating a UPS Shipping Label

     UPS is our consortium shipping service at this present time. Each time a staff member is shipping material to another system within the consortium, they will need to go to the UPS CampusShip website, located at www.campusship.ups.com. The contact person may allow other staff members access to the login and password, which is fine as long as the contact person is responsible for any issues that occur. A recommendation: whatever computer you use for your shipping of materials, you can save the information for future logins.

     When a library system comes aboard to NC Cardinal, information is collected on who will be in charge of that system’s resource sharing. With the information collected, the Cardinal team will contact its UPS representative to set up an account for that system. Then, a conference call training session between a UPS trainer and the library system contact will be arranged. One of the first things that the UPS trainer will go over with each contact is how to use the address book for your labeling making receipts. It is up to the individual library system and contact person as to how to set up the information. You do need to have at least the following 4 pertinent areas of information on a printed label when sending out a package:

1. Library Hub (what library location the package is mailed to)
2. Contact (who is responsible for receiving/sending the shipments)
3. Address of hub (where the library hub is located for shipment of packages)
4. Phone Number of contact (a quick reference for the person receiving packages)

Your library’s UPS account is strictly for resource sharing shipping in NC Cardinal only.

Creating a UPS Shipping label

Go to www.campusship.ups.com and log-in. “Create a Shipment” should automatically pop up. If not, click on the “Shipping” tab. You will now start to complete the following sections:

Section 1: “Where is this shipment going?”
This is where the address book is located and you should select where the shipment is going. Once you select a hub, then the pertinent information of that hub is populated.

Note: Some libraries have more than three or four branches. Example: Asheville has 13 different branches. It is recommended that you set up only the library system hub information since it will be where material is directly sent or received.

Section 2: “Where is this shipment coming from?” This will populate itself once you log into the system. This is done by setting up your information with the State Library and UPS.

Section 3: “What are you shipping?”
Packaging Type. You must choose “Other Packaging” and then input the packages weight.

Section 4: “How would you like to ship?”
The service should always say UPS Ground Service. Then, you can check the boxes asking for “Send E-mail Notifications” and “Receive confirmation of delivery”.

This is not a mandatory guideline but will help with tracking packages that you send to other consortia members. The contact person would then receive both of these emails. Then scroll down towards the bottom of the screen and click “next” again on the second page displayed.

On the 3rd page, scroll down and click “Ship Now”.

Lastly, a box should pop up asking where to print. Make sure that your printer is set up to correspond with the computer you are using to print your labels. Select Print.

Once you have completed these steps, you can view a Tracking Number of the package along with a Guaranteed Delivery date, discounted charges for shipping, and the account of the shipper or library system.

Take the printed label, fold in half with the UPS barcode and pertinent library system hub information front facing, place in one of the clear label UPS sleeves that you have ordered from UPS, and place on your package. Seal the sleeve closed for mailing.

Once you have finished this process, your material can be placed wherever your daily UPS/mail delivery will be picked up or dropped off.

Remember, whenever you reuse any box that your system has acquired for shipping that old labels be covered up, marked through, or taken off the box so that UPS does not think the box is either being sent right back to your system or to go to someone else that isn’t a part of our consortium.

How to Void a Package or Reprint a Packaging Slip

If you ever need to reprint a packaging slip or need to cancel a shipment before it has been sent out, you will need to look up the Tracking number of the package.

• To perform this workflow within UPS interface:
• Shipping tab > “View History” within the legend on the left side to view shipping history.
• To reprint labels > click “Reprint Label” for which label you need reprinted. Labels can be reprinted for the first 24 hours after creating a shipment.
• To void a shipment, click on the box to the left of the shipment and then “Void”.

4.1. Recommendations

Best Practices of NC Cardinal Resource Sharing

1) It is best to have at least two people who understand what your library’s daily resource sharing procedures entail. You never know when your contact person will be sick for a long period of time or on vacation. This way, your backup will know how to get into your UPS account to make labels. Regardless, there must be one person who is the contact. The contact person should also be located at the library system’s hub, if at all possible.

2) Keep track of your packages arriving to their destinations by checking the UPS box, “Send E-Mail Notifications “and “Receive Confirmation of Delivery” on the first page of the shipping interface. This way, you will be sent an email of what has arrived.

3) Use the address forum within UPS to keep your contacts up to date. Also, you will need to incorporate the hub library into the receiving address field for shipping.

4) You may want to print off a list of all the library system’s branches, the hubs, and holds policies each system has which are found on The Nest via the State Library website. These are found within the Manuals tab. There are guides, how-to’s, library member listings, etc. The Nest is updated constantly.

5) Designate a single place or Library Hub for UPS for your packages to be dropped off / picked up. Library systems tend to have their own internal courier service/system.

6) Use the pull list for all of your branches for your own internal pulls.

7) Reuse any packing material that you can. Boxes work the best.

8) Even though messages or alerts may pop up once an item is checked in, make sure that you still look to see what the message or alert tells you. Check to see if all DVDs are housed in their case or any multi-media is attached to a book.

9) If there is an issue with an item that comes to your location, you can always contact the owning library’s resource sharing contact for information or help. Printing off the contact list is helpful in that sense.

10) If a damaged item or an item missing pieces is sent to your system, be mindful of all the ways you can deal with the item. You can send the material back to its owning library with a note while retargeting the hold for another library. You can place notes in your system describing the issue with the material while allowing your patron to check out the material. If something is missing (DVD has 5 discs but missing 1), you may call the owning library’s contact to see about locating the missing disc. You can also use the template in the back of this manual (on page 33, created by the Forsyth County Public Library resource sharing department and also located on the Nest) to attach notes to items. Please do not use scotch tape or masking tape on material as that can damage covers.

11) If an item appears to have gone missing during consortium-wide borrowing, you need to let the contact person of the owning library know so the copy status can be updated in the catalog. Any money that is given to replace a lost item stays in the county where it is received. It does not cross borders.

12) If a patron replaces a lost or damaged item with an exact copy, send that new item to the library system that had the original item. Most cases, the library that receives a replacement copy allows the patron to keep the damaged copy.

13) A transit slip must be printed out by the library filling the hold and/or by the library checking-in the item for return to the owning library. The transit slip should be placed inside the item if possible. Do not tape, paper clip or otherwise attach the transit receipt to the item. Inserting the transit slip into the item with the branch destination is best.

14) The circulating library’s circulation policies will apply to the item regardless of whether the patron is local or from another Cardinal library. When thinking of Intra-NC Cardinal lending, it is important to remember that an NC Cardinal patron is a patron exactly like your local patron. Intra-NC Cardinal Lending loans are not Interlibrary Loans (ILL) – they are simply circulations like any other.

15) Holds may be placed on most items in any NC Cardinal library. If a patron presents the on-hold item for checkout before it is retrieved for the requesting hold patron, the in-house patron with item in hand receives preference; a circulation supervisor will override the hold and check out the item to the in-house patron. The requesting hold patron will remain in line for the item. Patrons whose NC Cardinal cards are “blocked” or “barred” will not be allowed to place holds until their card privileges are restored.

16) Each library system within NC Cardinal can designate specific items types to be non-holdable. These non-holdable items can be defined as 1) never holdable or 2) non-holdable for a specific length of time, for example, six months.

17) Patrons may return any borrowed item to any member library for transit back to the owning library.

18) Consolidate items into as less packages as permitted. Don’t overweight your boxes (no more than 40 pounds a box) or cram a box to the point of bursting at the seams, but be mindful of how much stuff is placed into your shipping packages. At the same time, do not send one item at a time whenever possible.

19) An easy way to track material out by your system would be to use the Transit List located in Admin section up at the top right of the Evergreen home page. Choose Local Admin, then Transit List. Choose dates that you want to look up items sent out to other systems.

20) Use the Cardinal Listserv ( nc-cardinal-announce@lists.ncmail.net. ) for any questions you have or need consensus information about resource sharing.
