Hi Roger,

Do you mean search other libraries' shelfmarks in GeoCat or Geac Advance? 
In both interfaces, you can browse another library's shelfmark index by 
prefixing the shelfmark with the three-letter OLIS code for the library 
followed by two colons, e.g:

To search for the Nuffield shelfmark in GeoCat, with the Shelfmark index 
selected, I would use:

nuf::hx 86.c

and in Advance I would use:

c=nuf::hx 86.c

Hope I've not misunderstood your point!

Regards,
Alison.

PS Sorry about the profusion of articles in this month's OLIS News, but 
glad to see someone's reading them!
