DISTRICT EXPECTATIONS
  • When a new equipment item is received, the catalog should be searched for a DISTRICT record for that item.
  • If the equipment item has no DISTRICT record, the catalog should be searched for another record to which the school's copy information can be attached.
  • If no record can be found to which copy information can be attached, a new record may be created for the equipment item.
  • When a new record is created, the record should be brief and simple, with local school information entered only in the copy fields.  Other schools may then attach their copies to the record until a DISTRICT record is created.

 

General Info

DISTRICT records for equipment are being created in order to have fewer, more searchable equipment records.  When a DISTRICT record has been created by the Library Media Education Department, schools move their existing copies from their "school-made" record to the DISTRICT record in the Destiny catalog.  The school media specialist ensures that all school copy information that is required by the district is complete.
