We now have a new way for selectors and other interested parties to find out the cataloging status of our various ebook packages and series. You can now log in to the FileMaker Pro version of staff Vera to get both summary information for all packages and series, and detailed information as you need it. This access will replace the LibGuides summary page and the Wiki detailed pages, and brings all ebook information into a single system.
