Complicated Catalog - Teaching Students To Use One Search, Jennifer A. W. Joe Jan 2017

Complicated Catalog - Teaching Students To Use One Search, Jennifer A. W. Joe

Ex Libris Bluegrass Users Group Newsletter

A frequently heard complaint about One Search from the user experience end is that it is "complicated" or "over-whelming," but it has its positive points, too. The key is in teaching patrons who may have never had any experience outside of Google and traditional OPACs how to use it. This presentation covers best practices on how to teach One Search to new users in a thoughtful, less stressful manner using the very tools inherent in the discovery system - and how the thought and practice of teaching searches in One Search differs from the traditional OPAC.


Alma/Primo Management In A Post-Migration World, Julene L. Jones, Catherine Seago Jan 2017

Alma/Primo Management In A Post-Migration World, Julene L. Jones, Catherine Seago

Ex Libris Bluegrass Users Group Newsletter

While on Voyager, the University of Kentucky had a committee dedicated to handling releases and policies for the system. During our migration to Alma and Primo we moved to taskforces to manage the migration, putting that committee on hold. Post-migration, we revived the ILS Committee and updated the charge to handle Alma/Primo releases and policies. This presentation will briefly discuss the procedures we’re using to manage Alma and Primo releases, training, set policies, and communicate with library staff post-migration. We’d like to leave time for audience participation to find out how others are managing these processes at their institutions.
