Request Image Button
Concept
The Request Image button allows online visitors to request an image
directly from your online records. Since policies and procedures for image
reproductions vary greatly between institutions, this form is designed
to start the communication process between you and the online visitor.
When someone requests an image, you will receive an email containing the
visitor's contact information and a link to the record being requested.
You can then contact the person with details about how your organization
handles image requests such as use fees, payment options, available formats,
and delivery methods.
A checkbox setting in the Interface Management Site determines if this
feature is available or hidden.
Task
- Starting from a record detail page, locate the image viewer at
the top of the page. For Random Images and records with multiple images
available, you can click on an image thumbnail to change which image
is shown in the viewer.
- Click the Request Image button.
- A window will open displaying the Image Request Form. Fill out
the form. Required fields are labeled accordingly.
- Click the Submit Request button at the bottom of the form.
- A confirmation message will appear. Click the OK button
to return to the page.
- An email with the details will be sent to the address listed in
IMS as the Image Order Manager Email Address. You can then contact
the online visitor to finalize the details of the request.
