Welcome to Inventory Management

The end-of-year inventory procedure doesn't have to be long and painful; the Inventory Management window helps make it easy!

The Inventory Management window was designed to simplify the inventory process by providing you with convenient access to all of the reporting and utility tools needed to analyze and organize your collection.

Performing inventory on your collection can be a lengthy process. Once you have begun an inventory, Alexandria will regularly save all of the information entered until you are finished; we call this an inventory “session”. You can stop or pause your session at any time and when you resume, Alexandria will be ready for you to begin again where you left off.

If you're running a Centralized Catalog configuration where each collection is physically housed at a different location, each site is required to perform their own, independent inventory. A single-site configuration can perform inventory in one large or several smaller inventory sessions depending on their needs.

To access Alexandria's Inventory Management mode, type “/inventory” at the end of your Alexandria login URL.

Inventory is a survey of the items and materials you have in stock, so you know what you have, what's missing, and what needs to be replaced, reordered, or discarded. It can help you organize your materials and update all of the catalog listings in your database to match the physical items in your library. You can even generate reports for statistics, missing items, and more. In short, inventory is a critical part of library management.

We've made performing inventory quick, easy, and extremely efficient. Learn more in these articles:
