Users can only create MARC holdings for libraries in their MARC Holdings Maintenance library group.
The MARC Holdings tab displays information about the title’s MARC holdings records. This tab appears when you are modifying or displaying serial control records.
If one or more MARC holdings already exist for a title, each library and location associated with MARC holdings appears in a table. Click the Location platform button, and detailed information about the MARC holdings record appears.
When displaying a title linked to a MARC holdings record in e-Library and the staff client, if the holdings record is not linked to a serial control record, the holdings location displays without linking information. If it is linked to a serial control, the linked Control ID displays in brackets.
For example:
MAIN –– OFFSITE
MAIN –– STACKS [linked to serial control SC-123]
BRANCH1 –– STACKS
