A big part of our library collections are located in a remote storage which is about 12 km from its managing library. Until recently, the only way to request a volume was by filling in a paper form at a library desk. The form was then faxed to the remote storage whose staff treated the request and delivered the ordered item to the pickup library. This workflow forced patrons to go to the library desk, no remote request was allowed. In order to modernize the workflow, we wanted to implement Aleph remote storage functionalities. We found it not so easy to set up and were faced moreover with two additional problems: we wanted to allow patrons to request (1) some items which are not in a remote storage and (2) serial issues from older collections which had never been itemized and so could not be requested through the traditional Aleph functionalities. Therefore, we set up a PHP form that any registered patron can call from the OPAC holding page (item-global) and that automatically contains patron information, bibliographic information and item details (location, call number, description, status, barcode). The patron just needs to select the appropriate pickup library before the form is sent by e-mail to the remote storage. That form can be used for any location (not necessarily for volumes located in a remote storage) and for serial holdings with few itemized volumes (a Z30 is not required to make a request). [less ▲]

À côté de toutes les procédures fix standard appelables via tab_fix, il est possible sur Aleph d'élaborer des fix plus personnalisés (simples ou relativement complexes) permettant aux bibliothèques de modifier, enrichir, corriger, voire supprimer des parties de notices (BIB, HOL, AUT...) en Aleph séquentiel. Également combinables avec tab_expand, ces fix maison peuvent aussi se limiter à l'affichage des données dans le GUI ou l'opac. [less ▲]

Libraries must sometimes load records that are not available to them in a bibliographic format standard (Marc21, Unimarc...): integration of the book database of an academic research center, list of new e-journals bought by the library... This can make the conversion procedure of the data to the Aleph sequential format quite hard. Sometimes the records are only available in Excel. This poster explains how to convert easily in a few steps an Excel file into Aleph sequential in order to load records with manage-18. Next to this procedure, 'tab_fix' and 'fix_doc_do_file_08' are of course used to correct or complete the data. The strength of that method is that no extra programming is needed! Moreover, a basic knowledge of Excel is enough to understand and use that method. [less ▲]
