Tip for: 05.15.17
It’s time to do some weeding—or some really good book-talks—and the best place to start is to find books that aren’t being used. For this example, let’s look for fiction books that haven’t been checked out in the last 5 years.
So let’s open Reports.
In v6:
- Go to the Copies category, and the General subcategory.
- Locate the Weeding List (or Copy List - 1-Line) report.
- Add a Select By for Copy Last Used Date.
- Put the starting date as, for example, 02/24/1900, and the ending date to this date 5 years ago, e.g. 02/24/2012.
In v7:
- Go to the Copies category, and the Information subcategory.
- Locate the Weeding List report.
- Fill in the Copies last used between range as something in the far past, for example 05/12/1900, through this date 5 years ago, e.g. 05/15/2012.
This will give you a 1-line report with the Call Number so you can track those items down.
