Introduction to OLIB 9.0 Service Pack 11

The 11th Service Pack for the OLIB software was released in June 2017. It is for OLIB 9.0 only.

This manual incorporates any new functionality both for OLIB Folio and OLIB WebView for SP11.

As with all OLIB upgrade training manuals this is not an exhaustive guide to the Service Pack as many of the items included are bug fixes and minor enhancements which do not need configuration and which will not affect workflows.

The full OLIB Service Pack release notes for OLIB 9.0 SP11 are available.

There is fully indexed, context sensitive Online Help for each service pack. This can also be accessed directly from OLIB Web.

To request an installation of the Service Pack – please contact OCLC Support by email at support-uk@oclc.org or by ringing 0114 267 7502 or 0845 267 7502.

Changes to the User List Of Loans notice

The User List Of Loans notice has been changed so that it is now sent to users a given number of days in advance of the user's membership expiry date, irrespective of whether they have items on loan. Previously it was only sent if the user had at least one item on loan.

The notice text should be amended to reflect this. For example:

“Your membership will expire on <EXP>. If you have any items on loan, these will be listed below. Please ensure that they are returned before you leave.”
