At the end of July, we’re changing to a new system for LibrarySearch and there may be things you need to do to prepare.
How you need to prepare
Follow these steps to get ready for the change:
1. Tidy up your library account: return any books you don’t need, and pay off any fines you may have.
2. Export e-shelf items/favourites you have from LibrarySearch and the Drill Hall Library catalogue: email them to yourself or import them into your preferred reference management software. If you’re not sure how to do this, please contact your librarian. You will need to do this by 21st July.
3. Keep an eye on our website and Twitter: we’ll keep you posted about key dates and developments.
Why is LibrarySearch changing?
This is happening as part of a collaborative Library Systems project involving all 3 of the Universities at Medway. The new system will allow us to make improvements to the way you borrow books in future, bringing benefits for everyone, as well as a refreshed look for LibrarySearch and the Drill Hall Library catalogue.
