NCIP

Sierra and Millennium, both Innovative Interfaces products, behave identically in their ReShare integrations. Both systems supports integrations for all NCIP services used by ReShare.

Configuring NCIP in ReShare

To configure NCIP for use with Sierra and Millennium, complete the following steps.

1. Go to Settings>Resource sharing>Host LMS integration settings.

2. Set each of the services you wish to use to “NCIP.”

3. Choose “Sierra” or “Millennium” for the “Host LMS integration” field as appropriate.

4. Go to Settings>Resource sharing>Local NCIP settings.

5. Populate each of the fields that appear on this page.

   1. NCIP app profile: This value is not used by Sierra or Millennium. You may enter a blank value or leave the system default.

   2. NCIP from agency: This value must be present, but it is not defined within Sierra or Millennium. You may use any value you like, but it is recommended that you use ReShare as the value.

   3. NCIP to agency: This value must be present, but it is not defined within Sierra or Millennium. You may use any value you like, but it is recommended that you use the name of your university as the value.

   4. NCIP server address: The URL of your NCIP service. This is typically formatted like https://<iii_domain>:<port>/iii/nciprelais/Restful.

Z39.50

Sierra and Millennium both support catalog searching via Z39.50. This service allows ReShare to offer unmediated request responses via the auto-responder.

Configuring Z39.50

1. Go to Settings>Resource sharing>Host LMS integration settings.

2. Choose “Sierra” or “Millennium” for the “Host LMS integration” field as appropriate.

   1. This URL will typically be formatted like: http://<iii_domain>:<port>/INNOPAC

   2. Sierra and Millennium Z39.50 services are typically publicly available, so no special permissions will need to be granted for ReShare to use the service.
