The Westminster Law Library catalog has been undergoing some
upgrades. Much of what you see looks the
same, but there are several new features.
The most important difference is how authentication is done when you log
into your patron record or use the proxy server for off-campus access to
databases. All students, faculty and
staff will now need to log in using their DU ID and passcode. The passcode is
the password that you set up to use when logging into DU’s WebCentral system. Law
firms, law alumni and other card holders will continue to log in the old way
with their name and library barcode.
Some other changes are not as noticeable. You can now view your search history and run
previous searches or searches that you have saved as “Preferred”. You can set
up your account preferences so that you receive notices from the library via
email or postal mail. You can also create lists of records, save them and view
them later.
More changes are coming in the months ahead as we provide an additional search interface called Summon which allows for faceted search results. Stay tuned for
details!
