[ILL-L] ILLIAD and III

[Brian Conlan]

Franca,

It's frequently a pain, but we keep our ILLiad and Millennium transactions
and patrons completely separate... for the most part.

Basically, the only time that they come together is when a block (lost book,
overdue, etc) comes into play. If we block a patron for a grossly overdue
item in ILLiad, we will also block their wider library privileges in
Millennium, but we don't have an automatic way to do this, we just enter
manual blocks. In order to benefit from Millennium's easy notices and fine
collecting features, we will manually enter ILL charges into patrons'
Millennium account as well.

All the tracking of transactions, due dates, etc stay in ILLiad. We don't
check out books in Millennium, so there's no record keeping there. We do
check out ILL materials at the circ desk though using the 7.3 WebCirc module
though- we've been very satisfied with that.

If I think of any other crossovers that are escaping me at 8.24 in the
morning, I'll pass them along...
