Setting up Visual WebCollection Plus

To make the Visual OPAC interface available to your patrons in WebCollection

Plus, select the check box for its toolbar button on the Toolbar Setup page (see

page 438). Then, on the Setup Information page, you have the same options in

WebCollection Plus as in your regular OPAC.

Important:

To move between the Visual WebCollection button sets, do not use

your browser's Back button. Instead, use the Navigation buttons on

the right. Using the Back button may cause the wrong page to appear.

To enable the other controls,

import your buttons first.

S

You must first click Import Buttons the first time you choose to use Visual

WebCollection Plus. Then, whenever you make any changes to the buttons in

OPAC Setup, you'll need to re-import the buttons.
Before you can use Visual WebCollection, you must have already loaded or

created the buttons in your regular OPAC. For instructions, see page 415.

Note:

Any buttons that are configured to launch an application are hidden in

Visual WebCollection. Because patrons can use any Web-enabled

computer to access WebCollection Plus, the path, availability, or name

of the application may not be valid for them.

S

To show any 856 tags (Electronic Location and Access) on the Title

Information page, select the Show 856 tags check box.

S

To include annotations (tags 505a, 511a, and 520a) from the MARC record in

the Bookbag, select the Show annotations in Bookbag check box.

S

For Visual WebCollection Plus, you, not the patron, determine the Bookbag

sort order. Choose from Author-Title, Call Number-Author, or Title-Author.

S

The Home Button Set is the set of buttons that appears when the patron clicks

the Visual toolbar button, or the Home button in Navigation. The list contains

the names of all existing sets. Choose any one to be the home set.

Note:

When patrons access Visual WebCollection with a Netscape 4.7 browser,

there are two slight differences in functionality:

S

To open a title information page from the search results list, the patron

must click on the title hyperlink; the whole entry is not a clickable button.

S

To remove one title from the Bookbag, the patron must click the Remove

button adjacent to the title; there is no Remove One button.

For WebCollection Plus for Union: This feature is not available.
