METHODS

new( $expiry [,$service_level] [,$need_before] [,$expiry_date] )

Creates a new SearchType object. Expects an expiry-flag string (text string, valid Biblio::ILL::ISO::ExpiryFlag enumerated value), (optionally) a service-level (text string), (optionally) a need-before-date (Biblio::ILL::ISO::ISODate), and (optionally) an expiry-date (Biblio::ILL::ISO::ISODate).

set( $expiry [,$service_level] [,$need_before] [,$expiry_date] )

Sets the object's expiry-flag (text string, valid Biblio::ILL::ISO::ExpiryFlag enumerated value), (optionally) service-level (text string), (optionally) need-before-date (Biblio::ILL::ISO::ISODate), and (optionally) expiry-date (Biblio::ILL::ISO::ISODate).

from_asn($href)

Given a properly formatted hash, builds the object.
