When you add a holding to the National Union Catalogue, you can indicate whether it is available for loan.
Just add the words of your choice (usually “not available for interloan”) to the Holdings Note Field on the ‘Add Holdings Record’ page.

You may use the reason ‘Not found as cited’ in VDX
September 3, 2009 · Leave a Comment
The reason ‘Not found as cited’ is only intended for use on copy requests as a means of identifying that the citation does not match with the item.
Doing so means the request does not move to the next location in the rota. It is not for use against loan requests.
