Description

The present invention is built manual inspection system for collection and inspection in libraries, as well as, a program and a recording medium, specifically, is intended to support books or magazines inspection operations library holdings.

  Conventionally, in a library, it has been necessary to manage various kinds of information related to books in order to perform library operations such as book catalog management. Due to the remarkable development of information-related technologies such as computers and networks in recent years, various types of information related to books using computers etc. have been acquired and managed in libraries, and the digitization and onlineization of information in library operations has progressed. It has been.

  The functions required of a library information management system for managing various types of information in a library using a computer, etc. are large. Catalog management function (basic function), browsing management function, magazine management function, collection check function, ordering It consists of an acceptance function, a mutual loan function, a book search function, etc., and is classified into one basic function and six subfunctions.

  The catalog management function (basic function) is a function for using catalog information stored in the comprehensive catalog database of catalog location information services provided by external organizations such as the National Institute of Informatics, etc. after acceptance processing after delivery of books. The function of performing catalog creation processing of books, determining the placement location after creating the catalog, and performing the layout processing. It also has a collection statistical processing function for collecting collection statistics based on these processing results.

The browsing management function manages the users of the library by the user management function, and performs the lending / returning process of the book based on the user information by the user management function and the holding information by the book arrangement process.
The library search function (material search) performs catalog search processing for library users to search by catalog, and after catalog search, the user performs loan reservation application processing or document copy application processing. Furthermore, it also has a usage statistics processing function that takes usage statistics based on all or part of the user management function, loan return processing, and reservation management function.

  The collection check function performs a collection check process based on the information on the loan return process. In addition, the mutual loan function is based on the document copy application process in the book search function, for example, a request stored in the mutual loan database of the interlibrary loan service provided by an external organization such as the National Institute of Informatics described above. Copies books managed by other libraries by using information and reception information. Furthermore, books managed by other libraries can be borrowed through the loan reservation application process.

The functions as described above required for the library information management system usually have an independent system for each function, and a librarian who performs a library operation operates separately for each function.
However, in the case of performing a collection check function by the collection check function in the conventional library information management system, during the check work, for example, to close the library or to stop operations such as library lending and return, There is a problem that it is difficult to efficiently perform the inspection work while suppressing the influence of the inspection work on other operations.

This kind of collection check work includes a book number, book title, author name, publisher, year of publication, and a bar code representing the information on each book. A printed label is affixed, this barcode is read and stored on the handy terminal, and then the information such as the material number stored in the handy terminal is transferred to the computer in a batch, and this information is checked against the database. Therefore, the efficiency of the collection inspection work is improved (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2003-108704 A

However, the collection inspection subsystem captures information such as collections to be inspected from the barcode or RF tag by the handy terminal, reads this information with the business terminal, and the location of the collection to be inspected and the range of billing symbols (hereinafter referred to as the (Referred to as partition conditions) and the collected information were collectively inspected by the business server, and the person in charge went to the business server to check the inspection results.
In this one inspection, information of up to 10,000 items is read, and it takes about 10 minutes for the inspection to be completed. Even if the specified conditions are wrong after instructing the inspection, Since it cannot be stopped halfway, it will wait until the end.

  Furthermore, in this case, once the execution of the inspection process is instructed, the inspection cannot be stopped halfway even if the specified partition conditions do not match the imported information and are incorrect. Is reflected in the database, and in order to redo the inspection work, it is necessary to return to the original state before the update, and there is a problem that work efficiency is very poor.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned actual situation, and is capable of minimizing the influence on inspection work, and does not update the database with erroneous data, and a library inspection system and program in a library And a recording medium.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention described in claim 1 registers a business terminal that supports the work of checking materials in a library, and catalog information and location information of materials in the inspection range set according to the inspection plan. In the collection inspection system in which a server for inspecting materials in the library is connected via a network based on the inspection database to be performed, the business terminal includes a receiving means for receiving a partition condition subject to collection inspection, and a plurality of inspection targets. Reading means for reading the material ID of the material and position information of the material, transmission means for transmitting a confirmation request including the partition condition and a plurality of the material ID and position information to the server, and a response to the confirmation request from the server Receiving means for receiving inspection results and inventory information; and display means for displaying the inspection results and inventory information. Includes reception means for accepting a confirmation request including the District view condition and a plurality of the article ID and the position information from said service terminal, and adjustment means for the number of the plurality of article ID is adjusted to be within a predetermined number , based on said article ID, a holdings inspection information extracting means for accumulating the extracted information storage means reads the inventory information and location information from the inspection database, the article corresponding to the article ID stored in the extracted information storing means Inspected state setting means for comparing the location information with the section condition and the position information and setting the extracted information storage means and the state of the material as an inspection result in the extracted information storage means, and the extracted information storage Transmission means for transmitting inspection results and inventory information for the plurality of material IDs set in the means to the business terminal.

The invention described in claim 2 is a program that causes a computer installed in the business terminal of the collection inspection system according to claim 1 to function as each processing means of the business terminal .
The invention described in claim 3 is a program that causes a computer mounted on the server of the collection inspection system according to claim 1 to function as each processing means of the server.

The invention described in claim 4 is the recording medium readable computer is a record medium for recording a program according to claim 2 or 3.

In the present invention, in the collection inspection work, since only a small amount of material information can be checked before the inspection is performed, it is possible to check in advance whether or not there is an error in the condition, and to give an incorrect result. It will not be reflected in the database.
Therefore, according to the present invention, since the influence on the inspection work can be minimized, the inspection work can be supported efficiently and easily.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of a library information management system, in which an arbitrary number of library information management systems operating in each library 10 are connected by a network 20. Composed.
The library information management system in the library 10 includes a business server 11 for managing library business, a business database 12 (hereinafter referred to as business DB) for storing various data related to library business, and an arbitrary library used by a librarian for business. The number of business terminals 13, application servers 14 (hereinafter referred to as AP servers), and an arbitrary number of user terminals 15 used by library users are connected by a network 16 in the library.

  The business DB 12 is a database that is used only by librarians for business, and is composed of a plurality of databases such as a library catalog database, a magazine catalog database, a browsing database, and an inspection database. Are all registered. Hereinafter, the database is abbreviated as DB.

  The business terminal 13 is a desktop personal computer, a mobile computer, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a mobile phone, and the like, and has a user interface that facilitates operation when used by a librarian. Any network connection is acceptable.

  The AP server 14 reduces the load on the business server 11 by performing various checks upon processing requests from the business terminal 13 to the business server 11 and delivery of processing results from the business server 11 to the business terminal 13. It is installed as needed and is installed as needed. Of course, a configuration in which the business server 11 performs all the functions of the AP server 14 can be used, but in the following description, it is assumed that they are installed separately.

The network 16 is connected to the network 20 and is used for business requests and browsing of other libraries 10 from the business terminal 13 and the user terminal 15.
The network 20 and the network 16 are not limited to wired and wireless, but may be any form of the Internet, an intranet, or a LAN (Local Area Network) connected by a dedicated line, a telephone line, or the like. In addition, this network is enhanced in security by encrypting transmission data, authenticating a user to be used, and the like.

  Next, among the library information management system having such a configuration, a collection inspection subsystem will be described. Here, the collection check refers to the location check work of the library materials managed by the library, and the following checks are performed to confirm the actually lost books.

(1) Whether the material is lost.
(2) Whether missing materials were found.
(3) Whether the materials are lent out.
(4) Is the placement location of the material correct?
(5) Is it a registered document?

  This collection inspection is roughly divided into inspection preparation, inspection work, completion of inspection, and reflection of inspection results. Hereinafter, these work contents will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

<A: Preparation for inspection >
In preparation for inspection, an inspection work plan is prepared and an environment for carrying out inspection work is prepared.
For this reason, what kind of contents are to be checked in how many days and whether to perform library browsing or cataloging during that period are determined (step S11).
At this time, in order to examine the inspection place and the number of days for inspection, it is possible to check the history of inspections conducted in the past and the number of books in the location. Decide what to do with the library management.

Next, in accordance with the determined inspection content, the inspection range is set in accordance with the type of collection to be inspected and the accuracy of checking the placement location (step S12).
The scope of this inspection includes the range of the shelf number indicating the location of the collection and the billing symbol.

When the inspection range is set, the start of inspection is declared (step S13). After starting one inspection operation, another inspection operation cannot be started until the inspection operation is terminated.
When the start of inspection is declared, various data used in the previous inspection work are deleted.

Next, an inspection target range corresponding to the previously set inspection range is designated (step S14). When this inspection target range is designated, an inspection DB for the inspection work to be performed is generated, and only this inspection DB is referred to during the inspection work.
This inspection DB contains information necessary for inspection from the book catalog DB, magazine catalog DB, and browsing DB, i.e., inspection management data, possession inspection data, and section inspection data, when performing inspection work on materials such as books or magazines. It is extracted and managed as inventory information and inspection history information.

Here, the book catalog DB manages, for example, book titles, bibliographic data such as publishers, material IDs for each book, catalog information on books such as whereabouts, and the like.
In addition, the magazine catalog DB includes, for example, magazine titles, bibliographic data such as publishers, holding data that summarizes information on volume numbers held for each magazine location, magazines such as publication date and volume number, etc. Catalog information related to magazines, such as volume data common to each volume or issue, and material ID for each magazine are managed.
All books, magazines, bookbindings and copies (hereinafter collectively referred to as materials) held in the library are assigned and managed with identifiable material IDs.

  In addition, the browsing DB manages book or magazine lending information, reservation information, and user information. Here, the lending information includes the book name and material ID of the lent material, the name and user ID of the borrowed user, the loan type, the scheduled return date, and the like. The reservation information includes the title and material ID of the material for which the reservation has been made, the name and user ID of the reservation person, the type of reservation, the reservation state, and the like. User information includes a user ID, a name, a user classification, and the like.

The inspection management data is the history information of the collection inspection work, such as the inspection execution date, the inspection location, and the number of lost or found inspection results.
The collection inspection data is created by extracting the catalog information necessary for the inspection from the library catalog DB or the journal catalog DB, and the material ID, the title, and the state of the material (for example, inventory, removal, loss, discovered during inspection) Abnormal).
The section inspection data is created for each group of materials (hereinafter referred to as inspection section) to be read in one operation, and is the number of inspections.

  In this check DB, the expected status of the check result data is registered as the expected status for each data before performing the actual check work based on the registration status of the holding information of the data and the lending status of the data. Keep it. As shown in FIG. 3, there are seven types of expected states, and each expected state is assigned a code (the numerical value in parentheses is the expected state code).

(A) Stock (00): Indicates that a document exists at the location where the inspection is performed.
(B) Lending (01): Indicates that there is no data at the location where the inspection is performed because the item is being lent.
(C) Reservation pending (02): Indicates that no document exists at the location where the inspection is performed because the reservation is pending.
(D) Being removed (11): Indicates that no material is present at the place where the inspection is performed because the person is removed.
(E) Lost (12): Indicates that there is no data in the location where inspection is performed because it is lost.
(F) Unregistered (20): Indicates that the holding information of the material is not registered or the material is not the object of inspection.
(G) Abnormal code (30): Indicates that the content of the material label affixed to the material is incorrect, such as the number of digits is small.

  Here, the unregistered (20) and the abnormal code (30) are not used in the expected state when the inspection target range is designated and the collection inspection data is created in the inspection DB. This is because, if a document that is not subject to inspection is read, the possession inspection data of this material is not registered in the inspection DB, so if such material is discovered during inspection work, the possession inspection data is registered. In the expected state, unregistered (20) and abnormal code (30) are set.

<B: Collection check work >
Next, when preparations for inspection are completed, collection inspection work is performed based on the plan.
The collection book inspection operation reads, for example, information on a material label attached to a material on a bookshelf for each inspection section, compares the read information with an inspection DB, and outputs an inspection result.

First, the label that is affixed to the material will be described.
FIG. 4A shows an example in which a document label is formed by sequentially bonding a print label, an RF tag, and a double-sided adhesive sheet. The document label table is provided with a print label using paper or the like as a base material, and a classification code, a barcode, a two-dimensional symbol, or the like is printed at the time of registering the material. The RF tag is formed by sealing a minute semiconductor IC chip having a transmission / reception circuit, an arithmetic circuit, and a memory circuit for non-contact transmission and an antenna which is a non-contact coupling mechanism with plastic or the like. At this time, the material ID is recorded in the RF tag. A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive is attached to the back of the document label.

  FIG. 4B shows an example in which a print label and a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet are sequentially bonded to form a document label. The document label table is provided with a print label using paper or the like as a base material, and a bar code representing a material ID, a two-dimensional symbol, or the like is printed when the material is registered. A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive is attached to the back of the document label.

  As shown in FIG. 4C, the material label configured in this manner is generally attached to the back of the material (material label 1), the front cover or the back cover (material label 2) when the material is purchased. The In addition to the cover, it may be attached to the inside of the cover, or may be attached to either the cover or the inside of the cover. The material thus labeled is stored in a bookshelf as shown in FIG.

Next, the collection inspection work will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, the material label affixed to the material for each inspection section is read using the handy terminal (step S21).
This handy terminal is a reader that includes an antenna and a controller when the material label is an RF tag, and reads information by using electric power generated by the electromagnetic wave or radio wave when the electromagnetic wave or radio wave is applied.
In addition to the material ID recorded on the RF tag, the information read in this case is also the position information on the bookshelf where the RF tag exists. The storage order of the materials is checked based on this position information.
If the material label is a bar code or a two-dimensional symbol, it is read by a handy bar code reader or scanner. The position information of the material in this case is determined by the order in which the material IDs are read.

A file is created in the business terminal 13, a handy terminal is set in an OCN (optical transmission device) connected to the business terminal 13, and information such as the material ID and the material location information stored in the handy terminal is stored in the business terminal 13. The file is transferred to the created file (step S22).
The business terminal 13 and the handy terminal may be connected by infrared communication or wireless communication to exchange data.

Next, a partition condition (for example, the location of the document, the range of the billing symbol) indicating which section of the document is the material ID taken from the handy terminal is input to the business terminal 13. The contents of the created file are transferred to the business server 11 via the AP server 14 (step S23).
In this AP server 14, among the information sent from the business terminal 13, an operation for arranging the storage order of materials based on the position information read from the RF tag, unification of duplicate material IDs, and check of the number of materials Etc.
However, when the business server 11 performs such pre-processing itself, it may be transferred directly from the business terminal 13 to the business server 11.

  Next, the business server 11 compares the material information of the inspection DB corresponding to the partition condition transferred from the AP server 14 with the transferred material ID and its order, and registers the inspection result (step S24). Further, for example, materials that are found to be not in the correct state, such as misplacement or missing materials, are set aside so that it is easy to return to the normal state (step S25).

Here, the collection inspection process in the business server 11 will be described.
The material ID read by the handy terminal transferred from the AP server 14 is compared with the material ID recorded in the inspection DB, and the section condition where the material is placed and the material registered in the inspection DB. Is compared with the place where it should originally be placed, and this checks whether the place where the compared materials are placed is correct.
Further, when the material ID registered in the inspection DB is not included in the material ID transferred from the AP server 14 and is not lent out, the material ID is registered in the inventory information of the inventory DB as a lost material.
Further, when a material registered as a lost material in the catalog DB is found in the material ID transferred from the AP server 14, the lost information registered in the catalog information of the catalog DB of the discovered material is canceled. To do.
Furthermore, the material IDs stored in the inspection DB for each inspection section are arranged in the order of the request symbols attached to the materials, and the order of the materials is compared with the order of the material IDs transferred from the AP server 14. And check that the materials are arranged in the correct order, that is, in the order of the ordered billing symbols.
These inspection results, inspection date and inspection location are stored in the inspection DB as an inspection history. This inspection history can be displayed on the business terminal 13 or printed. Here, the inspection result is information including information indicating what state the material is in.

  The above inspection results are set in the inspection DB by using “inspected state code” indicating what state the material is in compared with the expected state as a result of the inspection work. As illustrated in FIG. 6, 12 types of codes (numbers in parentheses are codes in an inspected state) are assigned to the inspected state codes.

(A) Normal (00): Indicates a state in which the existence of the material is expected and the existence is actually confirmed, or a state in which the existence is expected and is not actually confirmed.
(B) Unchecked (10): Indicates that the existence of the material was expected but the existence was not confirmed.
(C) Discovery-Lending (21): Indicates that a document that should not exist because it is lent is found.
(D) Discovery-Lost (22): Indicates that a document that should not exist because it is lost is found.
(E) Discovery-Removal (23): Indicates a state where a material that should not exist because it was removed is found.
(F) Discovery-Reservation pending (24): Indicates that a material that should not exist because the reservation is pending has been discovered.
(G) Allocation error-location (31): Indicates a state in which the material is found at a location other than the location where it should be.
(H) Allocation error-request symbol (32): Indicates that the document has been found outside the range of the desired request symbol.
(I) Arrangement error-arrangement order (33): Indicates a state in which a request symbol arrangement order error has been detected in the reading section (synonymous with the inspection section described above).
(N) Allocation error-out of inspection range (34): Indicates the state of finding materials outside the inspection target range.
(L) Unregistered (40): Indicates that the possession information of the material is not registered or the material is not subject to inspection.
(W) Abnormal code (50): Indicates that the document label affixed to the document is incorrect, such as the number of digits is small.

As for the checked result, for example, the checked state is determined as shown in FIG. 7 and is reflected in the checking DB as the checking state for the material ID.
For example, if the expected state is set to rented (01), when the result of the inspection work is “no presence in the reading section”, the state is “no change in state” and the result of the inspection work is “existence” When “confirmed” is set, discovery-lending (21) is set.

<C: Completion of inspection and work to reflect the results >
Finally, the completion of the inspection and the work of reflecting the results will be described using the flowchart of FIG. The completion of the inspection and reflection of the result corrects the influence of the library cataloging and browsing operations performed during the inspection on the inspection result and reflects the inspection result in the library catalog DB and the magazine catalog DB.

First, the progress of the inspection work is confirmed (step S31).
If there is a place that has not been inspected within the scope of inspection, inspect that place. Here, when a part of the inspection work is not completed, the inspection can be terminated normally without performing the inspection work for that part. It is also possible to end the inspection in the form of stopping the inspection.

Next, the inspection result is referred to (step S32), and after the inspection result is output, the inspection end of the inspection work is declared (step S33).
At this time, the inspection result is reflected in the book catalog DB and the magazine catalog DB. Set the lost date, number of lost times, remarks, etc. as lost information for the possession data and copy data of materials that are found to be newly lost. When a lost material is found, the lost information set for the possession data or copy data of the material is canceled. In addition, if the lending process or the catalog registration process is performed during the inspection work, the state of the document may differ between the time of the inspection preparation and the time of the inspection work. Reflected in the catalog DB.

  Finally, the abnormal material is dealt with based on the inspection result (step S34). This is to move the material with the wrong placement location to the original placement location, or to correct the holding data in the library catalog DB or the copy data in the magazine catalog DB. In addition, if the document label or the document itself is damaged, the document label is replaced or the document is repaired.

Next, the collection inspection subsystem of the present invention will be described. In the collection inspection subsystem described above, information on the material to be inspected with a barcode or RF tag is read at the handy terminal, the information is captured at the business terminal, and the division conditions of the material to be inspected at the business server and the captured information are read. The inspection process is executed collectively.
In this case, once the execution of the inspection process is instructed, the inspection cannot be stopped halfway even if the specified partition conditions and the acquired information do not match and are incorrect. There was a problem of being reflected in.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, a function for confirming whether or not the designated partition condition and the file storing the captured material ID are correctly specified is added to the collection inspection subsystem.
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing functions related to the check function in the functional configuration of the collection inspection subsystem of the present invention.

  In FIG. 8, the business terminal 13 includes a section condition acquisition unit (reception unit) 131, a material ID information acquisition unit (reading unit) 132, a material information transmission unit (transmission unit) 133, a check result display unit (reception unit, display). The AP server 14 includes at least material information acquisition means (reception means, adjustment means, transmission means) 141, check result transfer means (reception means, reply means) 142, and business operations. The server 11 includes at least material information receiving means (accepting means) 111, possession inspection information extracting means 112, extracted information storage means 113, inspected state setting means 114, and check result transmitting means (transmitting means) 115. Yes.

<Business terminal>
The business terminal 13 reads information such as the material ID read at the handy terminal, operates in accordance with the processing procedure shown in FIG. 11, and checks whether the section condition input by the librarian matches the read material ID. The business server 11 is used to check and the result is displayed on the display device of the business terminal 13.

For this reason, the section condition obtaining unit 131 opens the screen as shown in FIG. 9 and performs the following operation.
The librarian selects the device name storing the material ID information and the like from this screen. For example, when “file” is selected, reading from a file storing material ID information or the like stored in advance in the storage device of the business terminal 13 is designated. If “handy terminal” is selected, it is designated that material ID information (hereinafter also referred to as material ID information) is read from a handy terminal such as an OCN connected to the business terminal 13.
Next, the division conditions (location and range of billing symbols) to be checked and the desired number of data to be checked are input. Since the number of data to be checked can be determined by checking about 100 cases of data, it is preferable to specify the number of cases within 100 cases.
Finally, when the “check button” on the screen of FIG. 9 is clicked, the material ID information acquisition unit 132 is activated (step S41).

When “handy terminal” is selected as the name of the device storing the material ID information, the material ID information acquisition unit 132 gives the user a file name for storing the material ID information read from the device such as the handy terminal. The data ID information and the like are read from the handy terminal and written into this file, the material information etc. transmitting means 133 is activated, and the designated file name is passed (steps S42 and S43).
If “file” is selected, the librarian is made to input a file name for storing material ID information and the like, and the material information transmission means 133 is activated to pass the designated file name (step S42).

  The material information transmission means 133 extracts material ID information and the like for the designated number of data items from the delivered file (step S44), and transmits a confirmation request including the partition condition and the material ID to the AP server 14 (step S44). S45).

  At this time, the transmission data is the data required to display the specified number of items to be checked, the contents of the files within the specified number of items (material ID information, etc.), the entered division conditions (location, range of billing symbols) and inspection data Send items together. Further, one material ID information or the like includes a material ID and position information corresponding to the shelf of this material.

Here, the data items necessary for display are, for example, material ID, material name, location, billing symbol, expectation state, inspected state, immediately preceding billing symbol, immediately following billing symbol, etc., and change as necessary. Is possible.
In this way, by specifying in advance the data items necessary for display, the business server 11 does not need to read items that are not specified to be displayed from the inspection DB, and the time required for reading information from the inspection DB The amount of data sent back to the business terminal 13 can be reduced.

The check result display unit 134 displays the inspection data returned from the business server 11 via the AP server 14 on the screen of the display device of the business terminal 13 as shown in FIG. 10, for example (step S47).
In FIG. 10, the checked results are displayed regardless of whether the data items sent earlier are normal or abnormal, and the number of normal cases or abnormalities (laying errors, discovery of lost materials, unregistered materials, labels The number of cases is displayed.
Further, when using a terminal with a small display area, such as a PDA, as the business terminal 13, it is possible to display not only all the result data but only the above normal and abnormal numbers.
Further, the display form of the result data need not be the one shown in FIG. 10, and may be appropriately changed according to the ability of the business terminal to display.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, since only the check of the specified number of material IDs is performed by simply pressing the check button by the material information transmission means 133 of the business terminal 13, the result data (check result Number of cases). In addition, since the result can be confirmed from the number of abnormalities and the displayed data whether there is an error in the partition conditions without reflecting the result in a predetermined inspection DB or the like, the work efficiency is remarkably improved.

<AP server>
The AP server 14 performs various checks upon processing requests from the business terminal 13 to the business server 11 and delivery of processing results from the business server 11 to the business terminal 13 to reduce the load on the business server 11. Installed.
Hereinafter, the processing flow of the AP server 14 and the business server 11 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
The material information acquisition means 141 receives the confirmation request transmitted from the business terminal 13 (step S51).
The confirmation request includes the designated number of confirmation targets, the material IDs within the designated number, the designated partition conditions, and data items necessary for display on the business terminal 11 (for example, the material ID, the material name, the location) , Billing symbol, expected state, inspected state, immediately preceding billing symbol, immediately following billing symbol, etc.).

Further, the material information etc. acquiring means 141 checks whether or not the number of received material ID information etc. is equal to the number of confirmation objects (step S52).
First, the material information acquisition means 141 of the AP server 14 obtains the number of received material ID information and the like, and if this number is equal to or greater than the specified number of items to be checked, deletes it so as to become the specified number. Furthermore, it is checked whether or not the designated number of items to be checked is within a predetermined maximum number (here, 100). If the number exceeds the maximum number, the received material ID information etc. will be less than the maximum number. To delete.

Next, the material information acquisition means 141 of the AP server 14 uniquely identifies the material with the duplicated material ID in the received material ID information and the like. The storage order of the materials is determined, and the material IDs are rearranged in the determined order.
Finally, the material information acquisition means 141 of the AP server 14 adds a list of material IDs that have been subjected to this processing, the received partition conditions and data items to be displayed to the confirmation request, and sends the confirmation request to the business server 11. This is sent to request confirmation of the status of the material ID (step S53).

  The check result transfer means 142 refers to the inspected state in the inspection result returned from the business server 11, and the number of normal materials, the type of abnormality (for example, mispositioning, discovery of lost materials, unregistered materials) The result of counting the number of documents for each error code) and the returned inspection result are aligned (or converted) in a pre-stored display format and transferred to the requesting business terminal 13 as inspection data. (Step S61).

<Business server>
The business server 11 refers to the inspection DB, checks the inspected state of the material ID sent from the AP server 14, and returns the inspection result to the AP server 14.
The document information receiving means 111 receives a list of document IDs to be checked, section conditions, and display data items of check results from the AP server 14.
The holding inspection information extracting unit 112 corresponds to the material ID acquired by the material information receiving unit 111 and extracts the holding inspection information of the data items necessary for display on the business terminal 13 from the inspection DB, and temporarily Is recorded in the extracted information storage means 113 (step S54).
The extracted information storage means 113 is a data item (material ID, material name, location, billing symbol, expected state, immediately preceding billing symbol, billing immediately following) extracted from the inspection DB and displayed on the business terminal 13. Symbol) and the data items of the unchecked state.

The inspected state setting unit 114 extracts one unprocessed item from the material IDs recorded in the extracted information storage unit 113 (step S55).
Next, the inspected state setting means 114 takes out the location item of the taken out material ID and compares it with the location of the partition condition transmitted from the AP server 14. Further, the inspected state setting means 114 takes out the item of the billing symbol of the retrieved material ID and compares it with the billing symbol of the partition condition transmitted from the AP server 14, thereby arranging the retrieved material to be originally placed. Judgment is made as to whether or not the object is placed on the rack, and the checked state (see FIG. 6) of the extracted material ID is set in the extracted information storage means 113 (step S56).

If the expected state of the extracted information storage unit 113 is a lost material, the inspected state is set in the extracted information storage unit 113 as the discovered material by canceling the lost information (step S57), and the extracted information is stored. If all the material IDs recorded in the means 113 have not been processed (NO in step S58), the process returns to step S55.
On the other hand, if all the material IDs recorded in the extracted information storage unit 113 have been processed (YES in step S58), information related to the material ID recorded in the extracted information storage unit 113 is attached to the material ID. The order of the results arranged in the order of the billing symbols is compared with the order of the material IDs transmitted from the AP server 14, and the information related to the materials is arranged in the correct order, that is, the order of the ordered billing symbols. Is determined, and the arrangement status is set as the checked state for each material ID in the extracted information storage means 113 (step S59).

  The check result transmission unit 115 returns the inspection result stored in the extracted information storage unit 113 by the inspected state setting unit 114 to the AP server 14 (step S60). Then, the AP server 14 performs the process of step S61 described above.

As described above, since the inspected state setting unit 114 temporarily accumulates the inspection result using the extracted information accumulation unit 113, the inspection result is not reflected in various databases in the inspection process. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, since the librarian can confirm before the inspection process, it is possible to eliminate mistakes in operations by the librarian.
Furthermore, since the material information transmission means 133 of the business terminal 13 and the material information acquisition means 141 of the AP server 14 can confirm only the material IDs within a predetermined number, the load on the inspection process can be reduced. Can do.

  When the business server 11 performs all the functions of the AP server 14, steps S53 and S60 in the flowchart of FIG. 12 can be omitted.

  Furthermore, the present invention is not limited only to the above-described embodiments. Each function constituting the business terminal, AP server, and business server of the above-described embodiment is programmed and written in advance on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM, and this CD-ROM is driven by a medium such as a CD-ROM drive. The object of the present invention can be achieved by mounting the apparatus on a computer on which the apparatus is mounted, storing these programs in a memory or storage device of each computer, and executing the programs.
