I was able to inventory a portion of the library resources. This was a brief, but interesting experience. The inventory consisted of three portions of the Dewey Decimal System: 000s--Computer Science, Information, & General Works; 100s--Philosophy & Psychology; and 200s--Religion. However, this was a relatively small portion of the overall nonfiction collection.
The inventory consisted of using a handheld device to scan each title. The device was then synced to the computer with the Destiny OPAC. The titles appeared within the program and several (around 18) titles were deemed "missing." The SLMS was very confused about this initially. However, she then realized that these specific titles were the individual videos available on our video streaming website, Safari Montage. This was especially frustrating because she mentioned that she had previously gone through the process to remove these Safari titles from Destiny in order to avoid this problem.
It's interesting to experience these kind of glitches... things you never consider happening until you watch them firsthand.
