Missing: half a book

A month or so ago, a borrower returned half of a book, “The Development of Print Media Code of Ethics in New Zealand” (AU10737774B).

I’d been waiting for her to return the other half so it could be sent to binding, and so had left the item on her record. According to Horizon, the item was checked in two days ago (yet is still lost on the borrower’s record – which makes no sense).

If you know anything about this item (or even better, have the half sitting on your desk!), can you please email me.

Thanks

  1. That does seem strange…prompted me to do some testing and it seems that once an item goes to ‘l’ (lost copy) status – it gets psuedo "CKI" – i.e. the previous borrower field (in detail status) shows CKI date as the date the item’s status was updated. It’s not really CKI though as it remains in the borrower’s items out list.

    Confusing!
