[iBorrow] iBorrow portal enhancement

[Beth Farmer]

Portal Enhancement Ready!

TBLC staff have worked with SirsiDynix to improve the login procedure on
the iBorrow portal.  We have heard your concerns about the user name and
password login requirement on the portal and have a solution.

The portal can now be accessed without logging in.  Users can search the
portal anonymously.  When they choose to request they are prompted for
their user name and password (and given the prompt to create one if they
do not have one).

We have implemented this change on the staff portal accessible here:
http://iborrow.asp.dynix.com/uPortal/Initialize?uP_tparam=props&props=TB
LC_STAFF&uP_reload_layout=true or through the iBorrow staff website by
clicking on "To search the iBorrow staff interface, click here
<http://iborrow.asp.dynix.com/uPortal/Initialize?uP_tparam=props&props=T
BLC_STAFF&uP_reload_layout=true> " On this page:
http://www.tblc.org/iborrow-project/search.shtml. 

We will implement this change on the publicly accessible portals at 8am
on July 26th.  

As a result, the Guest login located on the www.iborrow.org page will no
longer be necessary.  We will remove this when the change to the
publicly accessible portals is complete.   We are also planning some
redesign of this page.  Look for that change in the coming days.

We continue to work with staff in iBorrow participating libraries and
with SirsiDynix to improve iBorrow.  All of your feedback is helpful to
us.  Please continue to communicate with us by sending email to
iborrow at tblc.org.  


Thank you, 


Beth
