Selecting Campus Tools, eReserves, eReserve Bulk Loader allows you to upload multiple new eReserve listings at one time. This tool is intended for use by library staff members. Therefore, use of this tool is restricted. If you are unable to access this tool and feel that you require access in order to perform your job, please contact your CNAV system administrator.
To upload multiple eReserve items simultaneously, the employee responsible for those uploads first copies the files into the eReserve upload directory. The eReserve Bulk Loader screen lists all files currently included in that directory. For each file to be uploaded, do the following:
Add a description (optional). By default, the Desc field displays the name of the eReserve item file. You can change this file name to a more useful description, if desired.
Check the appropriate flags. Set the following three flags, as appropriate, for each eReserve item:
Available: Tick this flag to make this eReserve available immediately.
Watermark: Tick this flag to have CNAV add a watermark to the uploaded file to guarantee copyright compliance. (CNAV provides additional protection to copyright holders by watermarking graphics on the fly. When the Watermark flag is ticked, as students download or print an image, CNAV adds a distinctive watermark that clearly identifies the source of the material.)
Select the course: Use the provided drop-down list to select the course to which each eReserve item applies.
To clear this form and start again, click Reset.
