Changes to Library Search...

...have been made during the summer, with more improvements still to come. The basic look remains the same, but you should notice that once you find a book on the system the options are now slightly different. Whereas previously you clicked on the somewhat mysterious-sounding 'Locations' link to see information about the book, regardless of whether it was print or e-book, you now click on 'GetIt' (if it's a print book) or 'ViewIt' (if it's an e-book).

Another improvement is to reservations. Previously the request button appeared regardless of whether you were signed in, yet only worked if you were signed in, thus leading to some confusion and occasional frustration. However, now the option only appears after signing in - along with the other functionality only available to logged in users, such as the ability to save searches, add reviews and tags, and to access your own library account.

Other improvements are coming soon, and I will update you as they go live.
