Book Chapter Requests
Out-of-the-box, book chapter and specific page range requests require users to select the digital fulfillment option to let the library staff know that this is not a request for the entire book from the lending library. If the Specific Chapter or Pages field is enabled and users select the I only need a specific chapter or pages checkbox, the Digital option is automatically selected in the Format field, and the Chapter and Pages fields are visible to enable users to specify the pages or chapter needed for digitization.
Adding Autofill for Blank Resource Sharing Requests
When requesting articles with a blank Resource Sharing Request Form, users can automatically fill in the following fields based on a specified DOI or PMID: Article Title, Journal Title, Author, Volume, Issue, ISSN, Pages, Start Page, End Page, and Publication Year.
If this functionality is enabled, the system will display an Auto fill button next to the DOI and PMID fields (if visible). Selecting a button automatically populates the fields associated with that DOI or PMID. If the user had already entered a field, it is not overwritten by the autofill action.
This functionality requires the Augmentation integration profile to be configured. In addition, you must enable the following field pairs in the Discovery configuration to make the buttons visible on the form: DOI / DOI Auto Fill and PMID / PMID Auto Fill.
