Borrowing refers to RMC patrons requesting materials from other libraries.
Under the Quick Links Borrowing Tab on the Tipasa Homepage:
- Copyright: requests for articles which are within 5 years of publication and require copyright clearance.
- New For Review/Not Reviewed: requests from RMC patrons for materials not in the McGraw-Page Library.
- Produced:
- Conditional: items requested by RMC that are subject to conditions being agreed upon before they will be loaned. You MUST respond to conditional responses.
- In Transit: items requested by RMC that have been shipped.
- Unfilled: items requested by RMC that the lending string has been unable to fill. This requires follow up either re-requesting from new lenders and/or emailing the patron to let them know that all resources have been exhausted.
- Received:
- Renewal Approved: approved requests for a loan extension. Renewal emails are automatically generated for the patrons.
- Renewal Requested: items RMC patrons have requested to renew/extend the loan period. These are pending approval from the lender.
- Returned: items that RMC patrons have returned, which have been checked back into the Tipasa system and marked as shipped.
