PREFERENCES
As is the case with the current Catalogerâs Desktop system, the first time you log into the new user interface on September 10, you will be asked to set Preferences. This feature allows you to configure how Desktop works for you and is very important for getting the most out of the system. Earlier this year Library of Congress staff polled subscribers to find out what they wanted improved in the service, and many asked for a much simpler Preferences process. We heard you loud and clear . . . .
The new Preferences process should take much less time and should be much more straightforward. You will be asked to specify what language user interface you want, how long you want Desktop to remain open before it times out, RDA and Classification Web logins if you have them, and what types of resources you want to routinely consult. It should only take a couple of minutes to complete the Preferences process.
