Include Request ID with problem reports

When reporting an issue with My Account or WorldCat Discovery, it's very helpful to include the Request ID. It can be found at the bottom of the screen on which the issue occurred. Including this information allows us to directly trace what happened on the request we are troubleshooting.

Nuove funzionalità e miglioramenti

Choose your own label for the Resources menu

You can now specify custom text for labeling the Resources (custom links) menu on the navigation bar and footer. Previously, the label was Resources for all institutions.

To configure this menu label in OCLC Service Configuration, go to WorldCat Discovery and WorldCat Local > Display Settings > Resources Text. You may retain the default label (Resources) or enter a custom label. You can also specify translations for the custom label for any of the supported languages appropriate for your community.

For more information see Access and customize My Account.

Ensure library users receive updates on ILL requests

For libraries with Tipasa - beginning December 12

You can now ensure your library users are sent email notifications related to ILL requests. Previously, users could opt out of receiving these emails.

Because Tipasa notifications are associated with a specific ILL request, all email notifications are now flagged as transactional. Even if the user previously opted out of Tipasa email notifications, the notifications will now be sent. The description on the Profile tab has been updated to describe this change.

For more information, see Send notifications to borrowers.

Nota

Cookie notice and accessibility statement now available

With two new links located in the footer, your library users can now access the cookie notice and accessibility statement. My Account did not previously link to this information.

New default colors for custom message

If you have configured a custom notification message to display at the top of the My Account page, it now appears in dark gray with white letters, to ensure sufficient contrast that supports accessibility. When this capability was released in September 2021, the message utilized a color from your institution's Branding & Customization.

My Account displays incorrect due date for recalls
