My Lightbox

Your Lightbox is similar to a shopping basket. You can add items to it from the "Search results", Browse pages, or "Item details" pages.
A summary of your Lightbox is displayed on every page in the "My Lightbox" panel under the left-hand menu. To see the details of your Lightbox, click on the menu item "My Lightbox", or click "View contents" in the "My Lightbox" panel.

The "My Lightbox" page lists all the items you have added to your Lightbox. For each item in the list, you can click on thumbnail or "View details" link to view its full details.
Click the link "Remove", shown next to each item, to remove that item from your Lightbox. If you want to remove all of the items from your Lightbox, click the link "Remove all items" shown above the items.

The items in your Lightbox are grouped by the permissions that you have for those items:

• Ready to download: items that you have permission to download are shown at the top of your Lightbox. This includes items that you always have permission to download, and items for which you have requested and been granted permission. Click the "Download all" button to download all of these items, via the "Download Lightbox" page.
• Approval required: these items must be approved by an admin user before you can download them. Click on the button "Request approval" to request approval from an admin user to download these items.
• Approval rejected: items for which you have requested approval to download but your request has not been approved. If the admin user has entered a comment against an item, for example to explain why approval was not granted, you can view the note by clicking "View notes".
• View only: these items cannot be downloaded.

Request Download Approval

You can request approval to download certain items. To request approval, add the items to your Lightbox and then click the "Request approval" button on the "My Lightbox" page. If you cannot see this button then you cannot request approval for any of the items in your Lightbox.
When you click this button, you will see the "Request approval" page. You can enter notes against each item, if required, and then click "Submit" to submit the request to an admin user.

When your download requests have been approved (or declined) by an admin user you will be notified by email. After logging in to Asset Bank, you can see which items have been approved by going to the "My Lightbox" page. If the admin user entered comments against an item you can view the notes by clicking the link "View notes".
