IntroductionIntroduction
Why do I need to fill out a questionnaire?
To communicate to OCLC your decisions for how Navigator will act at your own institution. With this information, OCLC will configure Navigator to work with your ILS system and to act upon your patron’s requests according to your preferences.
Who needs to fill out the questionnaire?
The sections of the questionnaire may be answered by different staff at your library. Please appoint one staff member to be responsible for the questionnaire as a whole, to merge the answers together into one document and return it to your Library Implementation Lead.

Full Library NameFull Library Name
Your library’s name is at the beginning of the questionnaire.
If it is not correct, please change it.
This is the name Navigator will use for your library.

In this section, you are asked about
• Your lending policies
• The libraries (entities) within your institution
![Page 5: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Services you provide as a lender:
Do you loan audio, video and microfilms?
OCLC will use this information to configure your lending policies within the Navigator Request Engine. NRE can be configured to automatically respond negatively to a request for these types of materials if you do not lend them.

Additional Navigator Information
As part of the questionnaire, you have been given an Excel spreadsheet (Additional Navigator Information.xls).
This spreadsheet is divided into 8 worksheets.
Some worksheets are instructions.
Other worksheets are used to gather data about your library.
Each worksheet can be accessed with using the tabs at the bottom left of the screen.
![Page 7: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

The 2nd worksheet is an instruction sheet, which explains each field in the Institution Entities worksheet.
Please refer to it while you are filling out the Institution Entities Worksheet.

Your institution entities
The 3rd worksheet is called ‘Institution Entities’.
On this worksheet, you will list all the borrowing, lending or pickup places in your institution.

The data you enter on this worksheet is loaded into Navigator and forms the basis of the configuration of your institution.
Even if you only have one library (no branches or other pickup places), please fill in the worksheet.

Your institution
Correctly assigning the function(s) that each entity on the spreadsheet plays in consortial borrowing is important to the success of Navigator for your institution.
There are 3 functions within Navigator. A single place may perform any or all of these functions.

ILLiad integration:
•Requests that are not filled within your group can be sent directly to your ILLiad system for processing as ILL requests
•Your patrons can view and manage their ILLiad requests from the Navigator interface

What version of ILLiad do you have?
Navigator requires ILLiad 7.4 or higher.
If you have an ILLiad version lower than 7.4, when do you expect to update it?
![Page 16: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Availability terminology:
In order to accurately determine if a requested item is available for loan, Navigator must be aware of:
•All the possible availability terms used in your catalog (such as On Loan, On Shelf, etc.)
•Whether items with a particular availability status can be requested by other members of your group
•A specific location to which the availability rule applies, if significant

Navigator is a patron interface from which your patrons will place consortial borrowing requests.
Before placing a request, your patron will be asked to identify himself.
![Page 59: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Navigator will authenticate your patrons with a user name and password that your patron already knows.
This may be:
• An ID and password from a campus registry
• A user name and password from your circulation/patron registration system.
All authentication is done through EZProxy.
![Page 60: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

If you are integrating Navigator with your circulation system, the patron credentials from your library system will have to be retrieved.
What type of circulation/ILS system does your library have?

EZProxy
Navigator uses EZProxy to work with your library’s authentication method.
This requires that your institution install and maintain a local instance of EZProxy.
Your local instance of EZProxy communicates with a master EZProxy at OCLC.
![Page 63: Library questionnairewebinar7 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052410/5481ce73b07959240c8b460a/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

EZProxy
You may already be using EZProxy for other products.
The questionnaire asks if you already have EZProxy installed at your library.

EZProxy
If your institution does not currently use EZProxy, a license will be provided as part of Navigator.
Your institution will provide a server on which EZProxy will be installed.

Once you have submitted your answers to the authentication questions, you can expect:
• An initial call from OCLC to discuss your authentication method.
• Occasional follow-up calls as the authentication work progresses
• Some work will need to be done at your library to install/modify your EZProxy and prepare for Navigator authentication.
• You may need to create a file of your patron data.

Z39.50
Z39.50 is a protocol that allows a client to search for and retrieve bibliographic records from a library catalog using a standard syntax.
Because Z39.50 is a standard protocol, it can be used to search all types of library catalogs that support the protocol. It eliminates the need to know search terms and methods unique to a particular vendor’s product.
