Home
The OPAC Home page is the member's discovery screen. It uses live catalogue and circulation information from the selected library and keeps previously loaded discovery rows available while refreshed data is requested.
Choose a library
Use the library selector in the header to show titles from All libraries or one library you can access. The organization name remains in the header; branch names appear in the selector and in copy information.
Browse discovery rows
- New arrivals shows recently added titles in a horizontal carousel. When that row contains active digital resources, use Books and E-Books to switch between physical/non-digital titles and digital titles; the switch stays hidden when there are no new digital arrivals. Use the arrow buttons, swipe, drag, or scroll horizontally, and choose View all to open the full catalogue.
- Popular considers circulation activity and member ratings.
- Recommended for you uses the member's permitted catalogue activity and interests when recommendations are available.
- Recently viewed stays at the bottom so it does not displace current discovery.
Drag a row horizontally with a mouse, swipe on touch devices, or use keyboard focus to move through titles. Each card places a full-width book cover above centered title, author or publisher, rating, and availability details. The complete title and creator text can wrap instead of being cut off. Open a card to see the full catalogue record. If a title has no cover, its name remains visible on a book-style fallback. Availability and ratings appear only when the library record supplies them.
If Home cannot refresh
The last successfully loaded public discovery data may remain visible temporarily. A session-expiry response is different: OPAC clears the expired session and returns to Sign in.
Screenshot To Add: Home on desktop and a narrow screen, showing the library selector and discovery rows.
