Accessing TitlePeek

There are no options on the Setup Information pages for enabling TitlePeek.

Once you select the check box that enables TitlePeek on the System Setup | Setup

| Cataloging | Misc tab, the TitlePeek button appears on the Title Information

page. It appears, however, only when the title's record contains an ISBN and

information is available for the title and you have a subscription to TitlePeek.
The button appears as either a cover image of the book (if available) or a

blue-and-white TitlePeek square. Clicking this button displays additional

information about the title. This may include the large cover image, table of

contents, an excerpt, publisher's summary, author notes, and journal reviews.

This service allows your patrons to browse the shelves" from outside the library

and can assist them in the assessment of the title's readability and contents.

a drop-down list above the search page's toolbar. These links can point to any

site, internal or Internet, that you deem useful to your patrons.

appears in the drop-down list. The URL must be the complete Internet site
