This due date is also called 'reservation layaway due date.'\\ The user who reserved the material is given priority for borrowing the material until the layaway due date.\\ When the layaway due date passes, the material reservation is automatically canceled, and the library lays away the material for the user who reserved the material next. === Loan period === This is the period of time during which you may borrow a material.\\ The loan period begins on the date you borrow a material and ends on the [[en:glossary:gloss#Due date|Due date]]. === Location === This is the site where a material is located. ===== N ===== === NACSIS-CAT === <WRAP ref>Reference</WRAP> <WRAP list> * [[#Union catalog (NII)]] </WRAP> === NCID === This is an ID number given by [[#National Institute of Informatics (NII)|National Institute of Informatics]]. === New arrival === This is a material that the library receives in the past 240 days. === New title === This is the name of the new journal after the title change. === National Institute of Informatics (NII) === This is one of the information/system research organizations of available facility corporation common to universities and colleges. === Nighttime processing === The system automatically maintains and updates data to keep data correct and current for effective processing.\\ Usually this processing is performed at night.\\ During nighttime processing, Material Search is not available temporarily or the message '***' appears although you want to reference material information. === NII(National Institute of Informatics) === <WRAP ref>Reference</WRAP> <WRAP list> * [[#National Institute of Informatics (NII)]] </WRAP> ===== O ===== === Old title === This is the name of an old journal before the title change. === Out of print === This is the state of a book whose copies are out of stock and no longer being produced. === Original title === This is the name of the old journal absorbed into another journal. === Other facility === These are libraries, research institutes, or resource centers of other universities.\\ In contrast to other facilities, the library where you belong is called '[[#Private facility]]'. === Overdue === This is the status of materials that have not been returned to the library even though the date on which they should have been returned ([[#Due date]]) has passed. Such materials are called 'overdue materials' and those who hold overdue materials are called 'overdue users.'\\ A penalty may be imposed on overdue users. === Overdue users === <WRAP ref>Reference</WRAP> <WRAP list> * [[#Overdue]] </WRAP> === Overdue user === <WRAP ref>Reference</WRAP> <WRAP list> * [[#Overdue]] </WRAP> ===== P ===== === Page number === Alphanumeric value to represent the context of a page.\\ Alphanumeric sign that is basically irrelevant to the number of pages of a material.\\ Ex.)"1,2,3,4,5,...", "3,4,5,6,7,...", "ⅰ,ⅱ,ⅲ,1,2,3,..." === Password === This is a character string that the system uses to authenticate an operator.\\ You must not reveal your password to any other users.\\ Personal identification numbers for ATMs are one of passwords. === Private facility === This is the library where you belong.

[[#Journal title]] or [[#ISSN (International Standard Serial Number)|ISSN]] represents the entire volumes of a journal.
