ILL search speed to be addressed

The NHAIS ILL System will be offline for up to 15 minutes starting at 10 o'clock tonight (Thursday, Feb. 11) for implementation of program updates. Included are changes to address the slow delivery of search results that we've seen in the NHAIS ILL System since early December. Auto-Graphics says the speed and performance when searching Z-targets has been improved so users should experience a faster return of results. Note that individual Z-target performance is also dependent on local configuration so results can vary.

Another issue addressed in tonight's update: some searches resulted in the error message “Something went wrong! Please try searching again” or an indication that there were results in the hit count but with no results displayed on the page. This has been corrected.

Also on the way tonight is a further tweak to keyboard shortcuts for Quick Links. When moving between staff pages, only unique pages will be added to the Recent Staff Menus section in the Quick Links menu, so that each page will display only one time, and CTRL+L will always return you to the most recently used staff page from another staff page or from the OPAC.

Elsewhere, the User Guides and Videos page in the Support menu has been reorganized so the Supplemental Information (chiefly training videos) is now listed with the related User Guide rather than in separate sections.

The videos are produced by Auto-Graphics and are not specifically tailored to the way the NHAIS ILL System is configured. You'll find links to videos specific to New Hampshire's implementation of SHAREit on the NHAIS Services training page.
