How to change item location to display
Answer
Each Library has a Location named “Display.” Items to be placed on display from the collection should be given a temporary location of Display.
In addition, Alma lets you set a date for when the items should be removed from the temporary location. By using this feature, Alma will automatically generate a ‘Restore’ request slip when it is time to remove the items. If the item is checked out, it will do the Restore at checkin.
To move items to a temporary location:
- Go to Fulfillment>Scan in Items.
- At the Scan in Items page, click on the Change Item Information Tab.
- Select Temporary at the Change Type field.
- Select Display in the Location field.
- Enter the date the items come off display in the Due Back field.
- Scan or enter barcode number.
