Affiliate Library Configuration in the SCF

1. Create user group

2. Apply user record group to a specific type

3. Associate library location with Fulfillment Unit

The Request TOU ("Library Delivery Request') used is what sets the terms for Home Delivery; because of this TOU, all requests made for these items are automatically home delivery requests.

4. Prevent affiliate user group from requesting other SCF materials

Depending on the rules in place for the affiliate library patrons, they may not be allowed to request WRLC items at the SCF; in that case, you will need to include the affiliate library patron user group to the appropriate Fulfillment Unit rules. 

The specific rules that need to be edited can be found listed below : 

  1. Fulfillment Unit : Library Delivery Only
    1. Rule Type : Request
    2. Rule Name : Affiliate Library Patrons No Requesting
    3. Add affiliate library patron user group to the rule
  2. Fulfillment Unit : Regular
    1. Rule Type : Request
    2. Rule Name : Affiliate Library Patrons No Requesting
    3. Add affiliate library patron user group to the rule

5. Create Provenance Code for affiliate library items
6. Create a restricted search group for Primo VE

This restricted search group will not allow non-affiliate library users (ex. Trinity users) to view the affiliate library's items in the SCF's instance of Primo.
