Reviewing and Cloning Outstanding Requests

Print Friendly and PDF Follow

Outstanding requests are those requests that are active: they are in the process of being supplied to the researcher or have been checked out to the researcher and have not been moved to a finished state. Cancelled and finished requests are not active. Outstanding loan and photoduplication requests can be cloned and resubmitted as new requests from the web interface. Outstanding loan requests can also be cloned and submitted as photoduplication requests.
