Staff can now search for and create requests on behalf of patrons or libraries through the staff web portal. This feature will allow staff to find potential suppliers within or outside the library/consortium and use them to create a routing list for the request.
A short video presentation outlining this new feature can be accessed here.
A new Search Auto service has been created to better support handling of automatic request routing updates. The new service supports the following scenarios encountered when updating a routing list:
Configuration options for the D2D to ILLiad feature now provide better support for each library’s unique configuration of their ILLiad platform
The Fujitsu fi7700 scanner is now supported in the Scanner application for Relais ILL customers
Bug with the Update Patron Record application fixed so that when a patron name or surname is inserted or updated, it is no longer converting the names to upper case but rather maintaining the exact case of the name as they come in in the xml file.
There are no known issues to report at this time.
