We care and are committed to engaging and inspiring future generations. We are passionate about sharing knowledge and have confidence in what we do, our students learn from some of the best in their field. Now is a very exciting time to be joining the roll-out of our new strategic plan, "Towards 2030", focused on making the most of our three most valuable assets People, Place and Partnerships, to become a catalyst for economic well-being for our region, nationally and internationally. We welcome applications that reflect the diversity of our wider community, to critically enhance the positive impact and lived experience of our people. Our differences are our strength and we believe in the potential of our people, regardless of sex, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief, class or any other aspect that makes you uniquely you. We believe in and are committed to providing an inclusive environment, as detailed at Equality, Diversity & Inclusion - University of Cumbria. Originality/value – This project received very positive feedback from the library community and this paper will provide information to those libraries which are interested in dynamically presenting holding information in their OPAC.We are the University of Cumbria, a place where people are at the heart of all we do, where enriching the lives of our students, staff and the communities we serve means we make a difference that really matters.
Findings – Compared to title-level shelving map displays that have been implemented in some libraries, holding level map displays solve the problem of complex shelving situations, such as a title with multiple copies shelved in different locations and/or in different formats. The dynamic map system consists of three sections: queried data from the ILS database, programming logic, and dynamic maps.
ILIBRARY UNIVERSITY CUMBERLAND SERIAL
Instead of transferring ISBN/ISSN (International Standard Book Number/ International Standard Serial Number, as practiced by some libraries) to display the Syndetic cover images, it transfers bibliographic ID and a few other fields from MARC (MAchine-Readable Cataloging) records to a processing program which queries the ILS database for extracting data needed for the dynamic map processing. At Wichita State University Libraries, the original bibliographic data are captured from the record results page in the OPAC and transferred to a processing program residing on another server. The maps are displayed in accordance with various shelving policies. Design/methodology/approach – Dynamic mapping displays animated direction maps for users to locate quickly the items found in the library catalog. Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine dynamic mapping of holding locations to the animated maps in a library catalog which aims to resolve complex shelving situations, augment the user experience in locating library materials and enrich the Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) by integrating external programming into the Integrated Library System (ILS).
