As part of the Quality Enhancement Support Scheme (QESS) project to enhance library collection and service, there will be a library system migration during Easter Holidays.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure a smooth migration, there is a brief period of service suspension for data testing and verification. Therefore, all staff and students are recommended to complete the following on or before tomorrow, 1 April 2015 (Wednesday).
- Check your online borrowing records;
- Renew any loan item(s) if applicable
- Place any hold request(s)
The new interface for the Library Catalogue is expected to start service by 3 April 2015 (Friday). An email notice will sent to all staff and students once the upgrade is completed.
Upon migration, the new Library Catalogue will offer:
- A clear and user-friendly interface for search;
- More sophisticated sorting and display of search results;
- Export of library material list for future reference;
- “Saved Searches” option to keep the search criteria for later use; and
- Many other enhancements.
If you have any questions about the new library system, please feel free to contact us at 3190 6650 or email to [email protected].
