Selection List Category Wizards

Selection List Category 1 and Selection List Category 2 are policies that are used to classify selection lists for statistical purposes and also to simplify finding specific types of selection lists. Any number of selection list categories can be created. The selection lists categories are optional.

List category examples include sources of reviews, such as Publisher’s Weekly, Choice, and LJ, and audience, such as Adult or Juvenile. Categories could also list the names of publishers whose catalogs are used for selection. By specifying and appropriate category and filtering by status of ACTIVE, a selector could retrieve active lists from a particular publisher or review source.

From the List Policies window, you can create, display, modify, copy, or remove the Selection List Category policies. Click Close to exit the wizard.
