Ordering Through OASIS

NOTE: Since the COVID-19 pandemic began there have been some minor changes to the OASIS interface that are not reflected in the instructions below. (FM, 1/18/21)


Selectors make choices on titles and then pass them along to LTS. – or, as referred to in OASIS, a Ratifier. The basic concept is a Selector selects titles from OASIS, sends to a Ratifier (LTS) who then orders those titles from ProQuest Coutts.


The following steps are taken to make immediate title-by-title selections using the Select Now option. Log into OASIS with your username and password at http://oasis.proquest.com.

1. After logging into OASIS, click on the New Titles link in the left column:

2. Then click on the Slip Notifications link:

3. Your list of titles will display. Note that a checkbox appears to the left of each title. Your records can be sorted by any of the elements in the column header (e.g., LC Class).

4. Clicking on a checkbox for any title will trigger a display of available actions at the top of the list.

5. The "green arrow" options may still be used for single-item actions.
