1. On the main search page:
S If you've added your name, an announcement, or a footer, or customized
the graphics, verify that these appear as expected. (See page 436.)
S The toolbar buttons that you enabled should appear. (See page 438.)
S If you set up any QuickLinks, make sure the drop-down list appears and
that all the links appear and take you to the correct site. (See page 448.)
Note: Some sites may open in a new window, not in the WebCollection
Plus frame.
S The tabs that you enabled should appear at the top. (See page 450.)

toolbar. Log in with your ID and Password. Your Patron Information page
