Updates for 11/7/13

Individual Library Logins
We are currently working on making individual library logins for enki. This will mean an end to needing to choose your library in the pulldown list. Instead, each library will have their own URL. Once this is complete, we will begin to work on the code that is needed to allow libraries to purchase and own their own conent and the ability to customize certain parts of their enki website.

I expect that the new URLs will go into effect in the next week or two. The current URL will continue to work but will require people to use the pulldown when logging in. I wanted to give everyone a heads up, because the new URL will need to be added to the marc records as well as your website.

The new URL will be in the form of http://xxxx.enkilibrary.org where xxxx is the code that your library has been assigned in enki. So, for example, the URL for Alameda County Library will be http://acl.enkilibrary.org

Let me know if you have any questions.

 
Mobile Website
The mobile website is now working. If you open enkilibrary.org from a mobile device, the mobile website will come up. At the bottom of the screen is a link 'Go to Standard View'. If you choose this link, the standard (non-mobile) website will show and you will need to clear your cookies in order to go back to using the mobile website. The online viewer is not currently working from the mobile website but we expect to have this fixed within the next week.
