+If you have been provided with the name of the central HUB database (only valid from v1.1 onwards), select the [**HUB Database: Cloud Based**] value and enter this database name in the [**Value 1**] field. If you want Pergamon to include this database in its HUB searches, make sure that the [**Search?**] checkbox is ticked. Save your changes by selecting [**Update**].
+If you have been provided with a local HUB file, (valid from v1.0.96 onwards), select the [**HUB Database: Locald**] value and enter this database name in the [**Value 1**] field. If you want Pergamon to include this database in its HUB searches, make sure that the [**Search?**] checkbox is ticked. Save your changes by selecting [**Update**].
+Note that if you have checked the [**Search?**] box for both the Cloud Based **and** local HUB databases, the Cloud Based database will be search **first** then followed by the local database file.
+===== Opting for HUB Searches =====
+{{:pergamonmu:items:items-hub-02.jpeg?direct&100 |}}Allowing HUB searches at point of cataloguing is **User based** and therefore needs to be additionally turned on in the user's own options in the Item Manager window.
+Login and start the Item Manager, then select the **[Info] > [Options] > [Search HUB for Item Data]**.\\ \\
+===== Searching the HUB =====
+{{:pergamonmu:items:items-hub-03.jpeg?direct&200 |Searching the HUB}}In order to search the HUB, [**Create**] a new catalogue item and enter the required Accession number in the barcode field (this may already be present if your barcodes are being pre-generated). Rather than entering any more data, press [**TAB**] twice to move to the ISBN field and type / scan the ISBN (or other serial number) of the item required.
+Press [**TAB**] again to move off the ISBN field - this will trigger the HUB search.
+If an item is found, as many fields in the catalogue record as possible are populated. Modify the record as required, then select [**Update**] to save the changes.
