titleWhy is Alexandria 6 not working on our browser?

While Alexandria 6 itself still works and can connect, it is an old software that has not beed updated since 2017. We recommend that you switch to Alexandria 7 at your earliest convenience.

titleWhich inventory mode should I use?

Well, we recommend using Inventory Management, which keeps track of inventory sessions and can save you time when performing inventory. But if you are doing inventory in Circulation, use Inventory Bookdrop (IB) with a wired scanner, or Inventory Bookdrop Suppressed (IBS) with a wireless scanner. If, for example, you're inventorying classroom sets checked out to teachers, you would choose Inventory (I) or Inventory Suppressed (IS) mode so those items are not bookdropped. In the Inventory Module, this means checking or unchecking the options for Audible alerts, and “Bookdrop items scanned during inventory”.

For more information, read about our Circulation Inventory Commands.

titleWill my inventory info disappear if I navigate out of the inventory management screen?

Nope! When running inventory either through the circulation screen or inventory management, the info is stored in the copy information. Basically, your inventory info is saved each time you scan an item!

Operations Management is where you can access the reports you run, along with the results of Exports, Imports, and Utilities. To access Operations Management, click on the wrench icon in the top right corner of the circulation screen.
