There will be no Capitol District route this week. Starting 7/13, and until further notice, the Capitol District route libraries will receive delivery on Mondays until further notice. If you would like to come to the State Library to pick up your bin, we are open Monday-Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. You can call 603-271-2616 if you would like to give us a heads up that you’re on the way, but it’s not required.
Also, until further notice, we will be running two North Country “hub-style” make up routes. Please see below for the details on those routes, and thank you to the libraries that have agreed to be pick-up/drop-off locations.

o IF YOU ALSO WANT TO PICK UP YOUR REQUESTED ILL MATERIALS, please email nhslill@dncr.nh.gov to tell us which hub library to leave your bin by 2:00 pm July 8. Moving forward, we will plan on dropping off your bin at the hub library “of record” until we hear otherwise.

It appears the team of three who is juggling the duties of the ILL van coordinator may have dropped the ball regarding notification of the cancelation of today’s North Country route [Monday, July 6]. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. The affected libraries are:
Conway
Madison
Chocorua
Tamworth
Center Sandwich
Plymouth
Campton
Thornton
Lincoln
North Woodstock
Franconia
Bethlehem
We are facing another week without a driver for the North Country routes and 1/3 of the “ILL Vanguard” as we’ve taken to calling ourselves, is on vacation. We are also without our substitute van driver. I will drive some kind of make-up route on Thursday. Details will be forthcoming.
Thank you for your continued patience,

NHAIS libraries now have access to a new source of MARC records. MARCit from Auto-Graphics lets you search millions of bibliographic records from a number of sources and download selected records for local use. If your ILS permits it, you can search MARCit as a Z39.50 target and pull records directly into your catalog. Alternatively, you can search inside the NHAIS ILL System interface and download records to a file that you later import into your catalog.
MARCit as a Z39.50 target in your ILS:
Server Address/Host/URL: marcit-service.auto-graphics.com
Port: 210
Database ID/Database Name: MARCITZIP
Syntax/Format: MARC21/USMARC
Username: MARCITZIPUSER
Password: call the NHAIS Help Desk at 603-271-2141 for the password
MARCit as a resource within the NHAIS ILL System:
This will work with any staff login but we strongly suggest using the "cat" username for MARCit searching and downloading. There are downsides to using "ill" or "all" usernames which are noted below. If you need to reset any of your NHAIS ILL System passwords, call the NHAIS Help Desk at 603-271-2141. Click on the "stack o' pancakes" icon to the left of the search box. To search just MARCit, uncheck Library Catalogs and check Cataloging. Search as usual and, on the detail screen, you'll see options in the left-hand menu to Download Record (for a single record) or Add to Download Cart (if you want to put multiple records in a single file--not available with username ending with "ill"). To see the Download Cart, go to Staff Dashboard > Cat Admin > View Download Cart. Select what you'd like with the check boxes next to titles, then click the Download button in the upper right.  Clicking on a title in the View Download Cart list displays full MARC info for that record. You can clear your Download Cart with the Empty the Cart button in the upper right.
Note that if you're searching MARCit with the username ending with "ill" or "all" you'll see the Request This Item button in your results. Using this will bring up the request form as usual and the ILL program will go through its usual routine to determine if New Hampshire lenders are available. If you're creating ILL requests, you should be searching with Library Catalogs checked rather than Cataloging so your results will be limited to what's held in Granite State libraries.
You can configure your "cat" login to search MARCit by default. Go to Your Account (top right of screen) > Your Favorite Resources, check Cataloging and uncheck Library Catalogs, then click the Save Resources button.  You can also opt to have the MARC Display at the top of the screen for your login. Go to Your Account > Your Preferences, change Default Full Record Tab to MARC Display, and click Save. Note that MARCit is not curated. There's no attempt to deduplicate results or rate record quality. It's a large pool of MARC records available to you in a single search. Using the NHAIS ILL System interface allows you to take advantage of its facets, grouping, and sorting capabilities plus its ease of navigating from one record to the next but many catalogers will prefer the convenience of being able to draw records directly into the local catalog via Z39.50. Need more help? Contact the NHAIS Help Desk via e-mail or at 603-271-2141.
