  23. INFOhio Updates FY12 INFOhio Toolkit www.infohio.org/Toolkit.html

  24. INFOhio Updates Learn with INFOhio Webinars: http://www.infohio.org/Educator/training.html Or, from the Educator or Library Staff buttons, select Training Opportunities from the left menu

  25. INFOhio Updates Custom Username/Password for INFOhio • Benefit: More visible access on the Core Collection page to additional resources (such as Discovery Portal and the online catalog), which will further promote the use of your library materials. • Benefit: Many school districts subscribe to additional resources with their own unique username password. Students may be more apt to use both the INFOhio and district resources if a familiar username and password is available.

  26. INFOhio Updates Discussion on putting the custom u/p into practice: • Scenario 1: If the computers do NOT allow cookies, or if those cookies are wiped out on a regular basis, then it will be a training issue. You should direct students to click the link on the Core Collection page that reads "Have a school login? Sign in here" each time they access the Core Collection page. • Scenario 2: If your computers allow cookies and if those cookies are NOT auto-deleted on a regular basis, then the custom u/p should only have to be entered once a year. (Once the cookie is placed on the computer, it is set to expire in 365 days.) In this case, consider taking a few minutes and on each computer, navigate to the Core Collection page, click the "Have a school login? Sign in here" link, and enter the custom u/p. The alternative is to have the first couple of classes perform these steps.

  27. INFOhio Updates • Students should use the custom u/p from home. • To request a custom username/password: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/DistrictUNPW Reminder if you have *not* requested a custom u/p and if you are prompted for a u/p at school, provide LNOCA with your IP Address Range(s).

  35. INFOhio Updates • If library staff created report templates or scheduled reports based on the itc10 source, new reports will need to be created using the statsfulltotal source. • We will send a reminder with instructions to all library staff in mid-October and will remove access to the itc10 report over winter break. After that point, any reports created using the itc10 source will not function. • We will also identify library staff with reports that use the itc10 source and will alert them individually.
