Always search the entire OWWL Catalog
To always search the entire OWWL collection change your Default Search Location and Search Range:
- Click My Account and login
- Click Account Preferences
- At Default Search Location
- UNCHECK Always search my home library by default
- Select OWWL from the list of libraries
- At Default Search Range
- select All OWWL Libraries
- Click Save Preference Changes
- You may need to logout and log back in for your changes to take effect
Unless you change these settings, when you are logged in to the OWWL Catalog your searches will look for items owned by your “Home Library”. Home Library should be the library you use most frequently, but may be the library from which you received your library card. Home Library also impacts the default Hold Pickup Location that appears in the Create / Edit Hold form.
View your current Home Library in your Account Summary. If it is not the library you most often use, contact your library to have it updated.
