Chapter 13 Circulating items with a PHD
This chapter starts with a brief explanation of why you would want to use a PHD
to circulate your collection and some suggestions regarding what to do before
you start. After that you'll find instructions for processing your remote
circulation data and for interpreting the resulting exception report.
Note: The term PHD" is a generic term for all of the portable handheld devices
sold by the Follett Software Company: the PHD+, PHD+II, PHD Laser+,
and the PHD Dolphin+.
Why use a PHD to circulate your collection
In addition to being a valuable tool during an inventory, you can also use a PHD
to circulate your collection. This is called remote circulation because you can
record checkins, checkouts, and renewals outside your library or resource center
using a PHD.
When you use a PHD to circulate, you do not see any block conditions or error
messages as you would when circulating using Circulation Desk. Since your
PHD does not contain your patron records or your circulation policies, it won't
warn you when a patron is violating a circulation policy.
For this reason, we recommend that you transfer the transaction data you collect
with your PHD as soon as you return to your Circulation Desk workstation.
Circulation Desk generates an exception report that alerts you to any situations
where a patron has violated your library's circulation policies.
Here are some suggested situations for using a PHD to circulate copies:
If you have a bookmobile, take a PHD with you on your rounds.
Take part of your collection on a book cart to a classroom.
Use a PHD to record transactions in the event that Circulation Desk is
unavailable.
Use a PHD to record the inlibrary usage of items not checked out before you
reshelve them.
