[ILL-L] review file

[Karen Williams]

Actually, I can think of a very good reason that requests are showing up in the Review file.  You can set up OCLC databases so that patrons can make requests within those databases and it will go to your review file. To check and see if this is the case, click on the "Admin Link" in WCRS. Under "Patron ILL Settings" on the left-hand side, choose "ILL Processing."  If Patron ILL Access is turned on there will be a check in the box labeled "ILL Access".  Then there will be a list of subscribed OCLC databases. Look at the column labeled "OCLC ILL Review File".  If there is anything checked in this column, patrons can place requests through the OCLC databases, and it will show up in your review file.

These requests can be imported into ILLIAD by using OpenURL. I don't know what version of ILLIAD you are running, but the instructions should be in the documentation at www.atlas-sys.com<http://www.atlas-sys.com>.

This has happened to me before to--I can't think of any reason why things should go into 'review' when you are using ILLiad. It seems like a periodic glitch to me. If you look in the 'verified' field in OCLC you should see a TN--I check the TN in ILLiad to confirm that all is well with the request, & then just delete it from the review file.

Is there a way, and if so, how do I pull REVIEW requests from WorldCat Resources Sharing into ILLiad?
I just happened to be in Resource Sharing and noticed I have a few requests in the Review category. Would like to process these in ILLiad where I process all other requests. Can anyone tell me how or where to find instructions?
Much appreciated.
