Re: [IUG] recordlink # invalid in Millennium Staff

["Fatout, Leslie P" <lf01 at txstate dot edu>]

I'm catching up on email, so forgive me if this has already been answered, but I know this one!  You append an "a" to stand in for the check digit at the end of the record number.

Okay, another dumb question here.



Staff will find something awry with the display of a record in the OPAC
and send the cataloging staff the permanent URL/record link to an item
in the OPAC, i.e., http://innopac.fauquiercounty.gov/record=b1179576;
the cataloger gets frustrated because that b# in the OPAC URL isn't the
b# in Millennium (b11795761). Do you always append a "1" to the number?
Doesn't appear to be the case, even though it is for this particular
record. She's tried various combos (x, etc.) and sometimes they work,
sometimes not. Anyway, I didn't have a good answer for her. Is there any
rule or does she have to search under the title, etc., to find the item?



Thanks,



Alison
