Beginning in April, PINES will begin implementing the multi-part functionality for print monographs in the catalog. Once the records have been updated by the catalogers, patrons and staff will be able to place holds on specific volumes or issues of a title that has multiple parts on a single record. This will include monographs in serial form (such as Southern Living's Annual Recipes) and monographs with multiple parts (such as encyclopedias).

The PINES upgrade was successful and all PINES services are now online. Please contact us if you encounter any problems.

Reminder: All PINES services will be unavailable due to a hardware and software upgrade from 6pm on Thursday, January 15 through 6am on Tuesday, January 20.
