Software Documentation
- Manual - If you have worked
with computers for any length of time, you have heard someone advise, "It
is all in the manual... somewhere." The Innovative software
manuals, which are available only in electronic form, are available
at: http://130.111.64.52/manual It
is essential that library staff familiarize themselves with
use of the manual. Though there are a few omissions, and
indexing is a bit variable, for the most part the coverage is pretty
comprehensive.
- CS Direct. Here you will find
notes on new releases of software, Frequently Asked Questions documents
focusing on topics of high general interest, Power Point slides illustrating
specific components of the software suite used by libraries, tutorials
and downloadable software.
An ID and password are required for access to both the manual and CS Direct. Staff at participating
libraries may obtain the ID and password by sending email to deborah.hensler@maine.gov
