9. A list will populate at the bottom of the window which contains every hold that needs to be pulled for our users. Once the list has populated, send notices to the printer by clicking Send Notices.
Don’t select Do Not Clear as this will cause slips to be printed multiple times during the day.
10. After sending the notices to the printer, a dialogue box will appear. Once the slips have been printed, click Finish Printing. If for some reason the slips did not print, select Resend.
Do not click Finish Printing until you have confirmed that the notices have been printed.
The paging slip contains all the information needed to pull a hold from our collection for a user. Information on the paging slip includes:
Patron’s name and address

Location
Barcode
11. After clicking Finish Printing the list of paging slips will clear, and it is safe to exit out of Sierra.
