Restoring Recycled Resources

At times, you may find resources you once thought lost, either lying on the shelves or returned by students. If you have already removed the resource or marked it as missing, you can restore it from the recycle bin. This adds the book back as an active resource, meaning you will not have to re-catalogue it. 

When an item has been removed from the resource table, it is placed into the recycle bin. This means it is included in reports but not when searching from the home page. If a resource need to be restored then you can find it there are restore it. 

Log into the library system and load Management, then select the Resources table. Load the Recycle Bin by selecting 'Recycled Records' from the right-hand menu under 'Records'.

You can filter the list to find specific resources by using quick search or advanced search. 

Highlight or flag the resource(s) to be restored and click 'Restore' on the right-hand side. A prompt will display asking if the selected resource(s) should be restored. Click 'Yes' and the resource will be added back into the main Resources table.

Note that if you have deleted the resource from here, it will not be able to be restored and have to be re-catalogued.
