Periodicals Control
Periodicals
are traditionally the most difficult and exasperating aspect of library management, and
have been the most difficult process to automate
Serials from Atlantic Rim maintains a file of periodicals (received or on hand) coded
by frequency of issue and with annotation available
The
system works as a part of the complete AristoCAT® system or as a standalone
product
As
the periodicals arrive they are checked in with an online check-in program, which then
offers a chance to check the record against expected arrivals. Anything overdue or
that never began is flagged. The record may be checked visually as well. Back
issues are listed by title, earliest date available, and latest date if not currently
received.
Any
of that may be updated at any time
