I'll add HLDM and ORDA to the Cataloguing module for now. Somebody who
doesn't have access to Acquisitions should try the ORDA to see if it works.
Right now, I'm a little nervous about putting Acquisitions stuff in other
modules since it may defeat some security provisions of the permissions
setup in Acq. In fact it may not work, but it's worth the experiment.
In the end it might be better to simply allow people access to the
functions in the other onlines they need. I've put the online keywords
into each online so that people with multiple module access can move
between modules directly (except from the OPAC). I'd rather be
parsimonious right now about adding keywords until after I've got everyone
setup in the system and the security provisions are a little better set up.
It keeps my task of administering the system a little cleaner.
On the other hand, I understand that you folks in 14E are or will be moving
around modules rather promiscuously and I know there's lots of work ahead
getting your access and functions setup to make things more effective so
I'm open to suggestions.
Maybe this won't seem as much of an issue after I've got the serials people
setup.
