It's Alive!!

The Armacost Library's new Alma integrated library system (ILS) is up and running!  Yay!  Big congratulations to Sanjeet Mann, Emily Croft and the entire Armacost Library team!

What you need to do to get ready for our new system: ILS Update #4

 

 What's happening June 30, 2017?

• Armacost library’s new discovery service, Primo, will go live!
• Our staff will also be busy behind the scenes settling into two more new systems.

What do you need to do now to get ready?

• Back up saved searches and saved items in your library account. They cannot be transferred into the new system. Use these instructions or Ask Your Librarian if you need help.
• Delete any browser bookmarks pointing to the old library search interface (https://books.redlands.edu) or to specific books, journals or databases before June 30. Links to specific items will be different in our new system.

How will I log in?

• You’ll use your campus email address and password. If you’ve already logged in to MyRedlands, Moodle or another campus service, you’re automatically good to go!

How will I run a search?

• You’ll continue to use the familiar tabbed search boxes on the library home page to find Books & More, Course Reserves, and Journals & Magazines. Searching in these boxes will automatically connect you into the new system.
• Be sure to log in immediately after running a search. The new system needs to know you’re with the University of Redlands in order to show your options for getting full text.

Anything else I should know about the transition?

• If you placed a hold on an item in Millennium just before the migration date, you might need to re-request that item after go live.
• If you’re a faculty member looking to submit a course reserve request, keep using the request form for now. We’re working on improving the request process, so stay tuned!

Where can I get more information?
