New Melvyl FAQ

Hi everyone,

Here is a good FAQ about new Melvyl: http://www.cdlib.org/services/d2d/melvyl/Melvyl_FAQ.html. This has been helpful for several faculty questions at the desk. One noted glitch is that you can't (for now anyway) set up a new Worldcat profile while logged in through OCA. So if someone is off campus and wants to set up a profile, they'll need to do that before logging in, or log out and set up the profile, and then log back into OCA. And if asked, the new Melvyl/Worldcat profile does not save information for Request. So each time someone places a Request, they must type in all of their information.

Best,

Laura
