An ILS::Item object holds the information necessary to circulate an item in the library's collection. It does not need to be a complete bibliographic description of the item; merely basic human-appropriate identifying information is necessary (that is, not the barcode, but just a title, and maybe author).
For the most part, ILS::Items are not operated on directly, but are passed to ILS methods as part of a transaction. That is, rather than having an item check itself in:
$item->checkin;
the code tells the ILS that the item has returned:
$ils->checkin($item_id);
Similarly, patron's don't check things out (a la, $patron->checkout($item)), but the ILS checks items out to patrons. This means that the methods that are defined for items are, almost exclusively, methods to retrieve information about the state of the item.
$item_id = $item->idReturn the item ID, or barcode, of $item.
$title = $item->title_idReturn the title, or some other human-relevant description, of the item.
$media_type = $item->media_typeReturn the SIP-defined media type of the item. The specification provides the following definitions:
000 Other
001 Book
002 Magazine
003 Bound journal
004 Audio tape
005 Video tape
006 CD/CDROM
007 Diskette
008 Book with diskette
009 Book with CD
010 Book with audio tape
The SIP server does not use the media type code to alter its behavior at all; it merely passes it through to the self-service terminal. In particular, it does not set indicators related to whether an item is magnetic, or whether it should be desensitized, based on this return type. The $item->magnetic_media method will be used for that purpose.
magnetic_mediaIs the item some form of magnetic media (eg, a video or a book with an accompanying floppy)? This method will not be called unless
$ils->supports('magnetic media')
returns true.
If this method is defined, it is assumed to return either true or false for every item. If the magnetic media indication is not supported by the ILS, then the SIP server will indicate that all items are 'Unknown'.
$locn = $item->permanent_locationWhere does this item normally reside? The protocol specification is not clear on whether this is the item's "home branch", or a location code within the branch, merely stating that it is, "The location where an item is normally stored after being checked in."
$locn = $item->current_locationAccording to the protocol, "[T]he current location of the item. [A checkin terminal] could set this field to the ... system terminal location on a Checkin message."
$props = $item->sip_item_propsReturns "item properties" associated with the item. This is an (optional) opaque string that is passed between the self-service terminals and the ILS. It can be set by the terminal, and should be stored in the ILS if it is.
$owner = $item->ownerThe spec says, "This field might contain the name of the institution or library that owns the item."
$str = $item->sip_circulation_statusReturns a two-character string describing the circulation status of the item, as defined in the specification:
01 Other
02 On order
03 Available
04 Charged
05 Charged; not to be recalled until earliest recall date
06 In process
07 Recalled
08 Waiting on hold shelf
09 Waiting to be re-shelved
10 In transit between library locations
11 Claimed returned
12 Lost
13 Missing
$bool = $item->availableIs the item available? That is, not checked out, and not on the hold shelf?
@hold_queue = $item->hold_queueReturns a list of the $patron_ids of the patrons that have outstanding holds on the item.
$pos = $item->hold_queue_position($patron_id)Returns the location of $patron_id in the hold queue for the item, with '1' indicating the next person to receive the item. A return status of '0' indicates that $patron_id does not have a hold on the item.
$date = $item->recall_date =item $date = $item->hold_pickup_dateThese functions all return the corresponding date as a standard SIP-format timestamp:
YYYYMMDDZZZZHHMMSS
Where the 'Z' characters indicate spaces.
$date = $item->due_dateReturns the date the item is due. The format for this timestamp is not defined by the specification, but it should be something simple for a human reader to understand.
$fee = $item->feeThe amount of the fee associated with borrowing this item.
$currency = $item->fee_currencyThe currency in which the fee type above is denominated. This field is the ISO standard 4217 three-character currency code. It is highly unlikely that many systems will denominate fees in more than one currency, however.
$type = $item->sip_fee_typeThe type of fee being charged, as defined by the SIP protocol specification:
01 Other/unknown
02 Administrative
03 Damage
04 Overdue
05 Processing
06 Rental
07 Replacement
08 Computer access charge
09 Hold fee
$mark = $item->sip_security_markerThe type of security system with which the item is tagged:
00 Other
01 None
02 3M Tattle-tape
03 3M Whisper tape
$msg = $item->screen_msg$msg = $item->print_lineThe usual suspects.
