Advanced Look at the New & Enhanced User Interface coming to Cataloger's
Desktop on September 10

Second of three weekly messages

 

PREFERENCES

 

As is the case with the current Cataloger's Desktop system, the first time
you log into the new user interface on September 10, you will be asked to
set Preferences. This feature allows you to configure how Desktop works for
you and is very important for getting the most out of the system. Earlier
this year Library of Congress staff polled subscribers to find out what they
wanted improved in the service, and many asked for a much simpler
Preferences process.  We heard you loud and clear . . . .

 

The new Preferences process should take much less time and should be much
more straightforward. You will be asked to specify what language user
interface you want, how long you want Desktop to remain open before it times
out, RDA and Classification Web logins if you have them, and what types of
resources you want to routinely consult. It should only take a couple of
minutes to complete the Preferences process.
