Maintaining the ILL Preferred Lender List in MassCat

New libraries will be joining MassCat on a rolling basis.  As new libraries are added to the MassCat database, you will need to alter your Preferred Lender List to include the library codes of new libraries that you want as part of your preferred lending list. 

To Add codes to the Preferred Lender List:

1. Login to MassCat using your library code, username and password. 

2. Click on the “Staff Menu” button on the toolbar:

3. Click on the “Maintain Participant Record” option on the menu on the left side of the screen:

4. After a moment, the participant record form will appear in the right side of the screen.

5. Scroll down a little way to the Preferred Lender List box. 

6. Add or delete library codes in the Preferred Lender List box.  Consult the “MassCat Member List” on the MassCat Website (http://www.masscat.org) for library names and codes.

7. Click the “Update” button at the top of the screen.  Wait a moment for the record to be updated.  You will see the message: “Participant Record Successfully Updated!” appear at the top of the form.

8. Close the window.
