Add a New Instructional Material

  1. Click on textbookStack.jpg Textbooks located on the navigation bar.

  2. Click on add.JPG Add.

  3. Enter an ISBN number and click on validate.jpg Validate ISBN.  This ensures the item is not already part of the district’s inventory.

  4. Enter instructional material information.  Red fields are required.

  5. Click on saveIcon.bmp Save.

Note:

If the item is already in use on one of your campuses, you will see this message:

“This ISBN is already in use by another campus. Pressing the button to the left will add this title to the district’s inventory. Once done, see Textbook Details to modify.”  

Click on add.JPG Add to acquire this title into the district’s inventory and assume the inventory information/quantities recorded by the campuses.

For example:  The district adds ISBN 9780123456789 to TIPWeb-IM.  The message come up that "this ISBN is already in use by another campus."  The district clicks on add.JPG Add to acquire the title, the title's established details, and the campus' inventory counts.  Campus ABC, using ISBN 9780123456789, has an inventory count of 100. By acquiring this ISBN, the district now shows an inventory count of 100 with 100 distributed to campus ABC and campus ABC automatically becomes approved for the respective ISBN.  This title is no longer a campus owned title.  It is now a district tracked title.  

If the district edits the textbook details of a campus acquired ISBN, the campus will automatically see those changes.
