Binding management
The screenshot below shows the binding management
functionalities within NewGenLib.
When a document is identified as needing binding, the
‘Document Separation’ menu option is invoked.
This will add the document to a batch of documents that need to be sent for
binding. Once a batch is
completed, the items in the batch are ‘checked-out’ to a Binder (one or more
binders are defined under
Setup operations). The check-out includes an order to the Binder to collect the
items for binding. Once
an item is checked out to a Binder, an OPAC record for this item will show its
status as ‘Under binding’.
When the Binder returns the bound items, these are checked-in using the
‘Check-in’ menu option.
This includes the processing of payments to the Binder.
