Learning resources (stand-alone WeLib)

The learning resources module comes at an additional cost. Create a request in the support portal customer.hornbill.com/axiell to order this functionality.

When resources are added, these can be marked as learning resources. They will then become searchable as learning resources for teachers and librarians. A banner on the cover image and on the catalogue record indicates that the resource has been marked as a learning resource.

Only librarians can add catalogue records.

For teachers to be able to handle learning resources, and for example add new items, the special permission Handle learning resources is required. This permission is granted by a librarian with Local administrator permission.

Handling items

A librarian has to import the catalogue record into WeLib first of all.

1. To show a recently imported catalogue record, select Show all in the “eye”. This will make it possible to search also for catalogue records without items.
2. Search for the book by selecting Learning resources only under More search options – Content and typing the title of the book in the search field.
3. Select Handle item directly from the search results. Alternatively, open the catalogue record and select Handle item from there. Enter the following:
   

   Setting	Description
   Unit	The school/schools you belong to in WeLib
   Department	One or several to choose from
   Location	The physical location of the book
   Loan period	If you want to, you can enter a different loan period for learning resources
   Barcode	This is where you scan a unique barcode for each item (you have already labelled the book with this barcode)

Filtering on learning resources

You can filteron on learning resources only under More search options. This functionality is always visible for librarians and teachers. It is not visible for students.
