This is a draft section - please be aware that this may change!
This documentation assumes that you have already assembled the list of items needed for a particular collection spotlight and are ready to begin preparing the items for exhibit.
Create a work order for the item
From the “Physical Items” search, locate the item you are processing. From the “More Actions” menu, select “Work Order.”
From the “Place Item in Process” menu, choose process type “Access Services Processing.”
The screen will refresh.
If you already have the item in hand, check the box for “Do not pick from shelf.”
If you need the item to be pulled and sent to you, make sure “Do not pick from shelf” is unchecked.
Add a note if needed.
