We have launched the Peer-to-Peer connection with Mobuis!

Now that we are live, we have started to place some test requests and will continue to do this over the next few weeks before the fall session begins for most Academic and K-12 libraries. Feel free to place requests on Mobius or Prospector items.  Let us know if you encounter any problems.

How it works in the Encore interface: After you place a search in Encore, you will see a link that goes to the Mobius catalog directly under the Prospector logo.  You will need to re-enter your search in the Mobius catalog.  Currently, a search can only be transferred from Webpac to Webpac or from Encore to Encore.  Mobius is using Webpac so at this time the transfer search feature won't work from Encore.  After you click on the Request It link, locate your library on the Home Library Selection screen; Prospector libraries are in alphabetical order after the Mobius libraries. You will be prompted to enter your name and library card number the same as when you place a request in Prospector. The request will be treated just like any other INN-Reach request and the item will be delivered to the designated pick up location by courier.

How it works in Webpac Classic interface : After you place your search in the Webpac interface, or after a search is transferred from a local Webpac to Prospector, there will be an option to transfer the search into the Mobius catalog.  The search to Mobius is on the right hand side of the screen right under the "Find More Resources" option.  After you click on the Request It link, locate your library on the Home Library Selection screen; Prospector libraries are in alphabetical order after the Mobius libraries. You will be prompted to enter your name and library card number the same as when you place a request in Prospector.  The request will be treated just like any other INN-Reach request and the item will be delivered to the designated pick up location by courier.

Marmot libraries and the Denver Public Library are currently not participating in Peer-to-Peer with Mobius.  However, they are still borrowing and lending through Prospector.

I want to give a big thanks to all the libraries who have adjusted their local system settings to make this project possible.

Please let us know if you have questions or concerns.
