Each separate bibliographic unit in TIND requires an item record in order to appear in the Item grid at the top of a bibliographic record display and to be circulated electronically. Normally, item records are created as part of the Acquisitions process (see the staff-only instructions for Acquisitions in TIND.docx). This article shows how to create an item record for an already-accessioned item.

  1. Log in to TIND
  2. Find the bibliographic record for the title in hand (if it does not yet have a bibliographic record, create one according to instructions not yet added to Folgerpedia)
  3. Check to see if the item already has a MARC 852$7 containing a holding ID
