Description
The new search functionalities of the Auto Librarian Cloud allow for simultaneous searches across all categories, such as Title, Call number, Author, and Subject, with remarkable speed. Users can effortlessly navigate through extensive search results, which can be segmented into manageable groups of 25 to 50 records, and refine their queries almost instantaneously with each keystroke, ensuring that the Results Grid updates in real-time. In addition to checking the status of materials, users can access a View link that directs them to Google Books, providing a wealth of supplementary information. The Patron Access feature enhances the library's catalog presence, allowing for convenient access from any internet-enabled computer, which is particularly beneficial for classroom settings. Borrowers can also review their Circulation Summaries, including details on checkouts, fines, and their borrowing history, although a pin number is required for this access. Furthermore, a quick link showcases the ten most recently added materials, giving users an efficient way to stay updated on the latest additions to the library. This combination of features makes the Auto Librarian Cloud an invaluable tool for both patrons and library staff.
