 Availability Icon
Determining Availability
To determine an item’s availability, refer to the color of the square or star-shaped icon next to the record. Green with a check mark signifies available and red with a mark signifies unavailable. A blue box indicates an item available electronically.
If you are searching at a library with multiple sites, a star-shaped icon indicates that the item can be found at the local site; records located at other sites will have a square icon. At a single-site library, the icon will always be a square.
