Our first topic will be Circulation. We'll start with this one since we all use it every day. To start off, you all know that you can access the HELP files on Horizon at any time by hitting the F1 key. This will bring up the Horizon Screen -- click on Horizon Basics and you will get 158 pages of everything you ever wanted to know about the Horizon automation system! Don't worry, you dont' have to read all 158 pages, you can also do a search for what you need.I know that you are all busy and referring to this resource may be too time consuming -- that's what we're here for! Leave a comment if you have any specific questions and we'll get an answer to you as soon as possible. Also, leave tips for others or let us know of a great new discovery you have made using the circulation features of Horizon.

Tip! Go to page 55 of that 158-page document for shortcut keys. Print the pages 55-58 or, better yet, make yourself a little "cheat sheet" to keep by your terminals. Very handy and useful!
Rememer: You can do a Skill Block at DMS on using Horizon circulation.

Myra or Cindy... Have you done your overdue report yet. I am still frustrated with what I am getting. Even after help from DMS. Which report are you using?
Tip! Go to the [dms on 'lh-fs2\share'] drive on your Citrix account (go the the green start button on the bottom left of the screen, click on my computer, then click on the DMS share drive icon). I believe that Holli set up an icon on some of your accounts to appear on the desktop. In it you will find documents and tutorials on all sorts of topics. For instance, you will find tutorials on using different features of the Horizon system, such as adding new accounts, changing price, or changing due dates, etc.
