The Serial Holdings section of DOCLINE contains information about the serials owned by each DOCLNE library. DOCLINE uses this information to route a request for a copy of a journal article only to libraries that own the journal.

DOCLINE depends on accurate, up-to-date Serial Holdings information for correct routing of requests. This information should be updated whenever you start, change, or cancel a subscription.

To add or update a holdings record for your library, follow these steps:

Select the Serial Holdings tab.
Click on the Add/Update button.
Use Bibliographic Search to find the serial's bibliographic record by ID number or title, or
Click the LOCATORplus tab and use its additional search capabilities to find the serial's bibliographic record.
Click on the Search button.
If there is an existing holdings record for your library, that will display and you can update it as needed.
If this is a new holdings record for your library, the "Add Holdings" screen will display.
After updating or adding holdings, click the "Add" or "Update" button.

The changes you have made will take effect immediately.
