Library launches new catalogue system

NEWS — Library patrons in the Thompson-Nicola are getting their first look at a new catalogue system this week.

The system launched Tuesday and includes an opt-in reading history, community tagging and reviews, integration of ebooks into the catalogue search, and a new mobile catalogue.

Library patrons will notice a variety of additional services and new features in the coming weeks, said TNRD director of libraries Marc Saunders.

“The library wishes to thank patrons for their patience and understanding during this transition period. The system migration is a complex undertaking that takes considerable time and effort.”

Patrons who need help setting a new password, suspending their holds, or searching can email questions@tnrd.ca or all the library. The website is http://www.tnrdlib.ca.
