Upload MARC Records to the Iowa Locator

Login to SILO Interlibrary Loan System
Select Upload MARC Data Files For Inclusion in Iowa Locator option.
Click the Submit Request button.
Click on the first Browse button to select a single MARC file from your computer. Navigate the file selector to the disk or folder or wherever you saved your exported MARC files.
From the Choose File window, navigate to the file that contains the saved MARC records.
Select the file then click the Open button.
After a MARC file is selected, the browser returns to the File Upload page. To send another file, use another browse button on the main upload page and repeat steps 3-5.
NOTE: Check the Force delete status box only when you want all MARC records in a file to be treated as deletes to delete your holding from the matching records. This option will over-ride the status on all records in the selected file, so add records will be treated as delete records.
After you’ve selected all of the files you want to send, click on the Upload Files button. All of the MARC files will be transmitted to SILO.
Click on Submit More MARC Files to upload additional MARC files.
Click on Upload Activity Reports to view your file upload history.
