Ex Libris Documentation

Harvard Alma Working Groups have summarized key changes below.  A full list of changes for the release can be found in the official Ex Libris Release Notes:

...

  • Major change to feedback messages (pop-ups etc.)All messages now appear in floating message panes on the side of the page. Messages are now coded by color and icon to indicate when they are a success, error, or information message. See Messages or see the video Improved Feedback Messages. 
  • Keep up with Alma widget - All Alma users will see a new widget, Keep Up With Alma, in the top left-hand corner of the Alma dashboard. This widget highlights new Alma features; you can move it to a different part of your dashboard or remove it entirely.
  • New premium sandbox policy - The Alma sandbox will now be refreshed twice a year (in February and August) for all customers. (The initial refresh is scheduled for 2/10/19.) As a result of the new policy, the Sandbox Management page in the Configuration menu and the sandbox widget on the Alma home page were removed. Instead, in your production environment, there is now a link to your premium sandbox from the Help menu.
  • Alt key elements/navigation On any page that has one or more hot keys that start with Alt+, press the Alt key to see the elements that are selected and their corresponding keys. Also, use the hot keys Alt+1Alt+2, ... Alt+N to open the nth tab on any page that has tabs. For this feature, press the Alt key, enter the number (multiple digits are supported, so you can enter Alt+10, for example), and release the Alt key to open the numbered tab.
