Partners
Create and maintain details about off-system institutions that you borrow from and lend to in order to automatically populate the partner details in your off-system borrowing and lending requests. Entries must be created in the Partners tab before they are able to use the partner in an off-system request. Refer to Off-System Requesting for more information.
Partners cannot be deleted once created, but they can be flagged as inactive so that they cannot be included in future transactions.
Use the search box to search by Partner Name, Alternate Name, Partner Symbol, and OCLC Symbol.
Note: There is a limit of 8,000 active partners.
