New OPAC
Spiffy! I kind of dislike that the default is to search Marmot and not MCPLD. I think that has the strong potential to mislead patrons. But I do like that it's called Western Colorado catalog because that is about 1,000 times more intuitive. There's a lot more that I do like, too. I like how easy it is to separate formats - I like how sortable it is with the right sidebar. (Publication date ranges? Very cool.) . I love the suggestions. I like that reviews are on the screen. I was one who always, always went to "More About This Item" to read them, which opens another window, etc. and this is much easier. I don't like that it is more difficult (maybe to just me?) to see where the copies are alllll the way at the bottom of the screen. I like that once I request one item, I only have to enter my info once and it automatically logs me in and next time I just have to click on request and it knows. I also like you can select a collection--children's is separated. Overall I enjoy it a great deal!
