The
Westminster Law Library catalog was recently merged with the Penrose Library
catalog. Much of what you see looks the same, but there are several new
features. The most notable 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 use when
logging into DU’s WebCentral system.
Another
feature is the ability to search all DU libraries at the same time. To do
this, select “All DU Libraries” from the drop-down menu on the search screen.
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.
The
catalog’s new URL is: http://bianca.penlib.du.edu/search~S9
