d Catalog)If you manage multiple collections in a Centralized Catalog environment, a site Code is embedded in Patron and Item records to allow an operator to quickly differentiate data belonging to one collection over another. All Centralized Catalogs have a Union Site Record within the list of Site Codes when logging into Alexandria or Textbook Tracker as administrator. A Union Site Record is a special purpose site that does not operate like a normal site. Any items assigned to it may only be checked out by System Patrons (Barcodes 1-100). It is used by Alexandria and Textbook Tracker in two ways: - As a place to assign Patron or Items records that do not have a designated site.
- Defining Preference default settings; when a new site is created the Preference settings from the Union Site are copied to the new site.
