Encore

At this date it appears we will be loosing Encore as a catalog option.  With the launch of the new library website Tuesday May 25th, the search box on the website and voyager will be changed back to the classic catalog.  When the library website launches, the classic catalog will be the older version until later in the day when it gets updated to the new look.  Be sure to review both the library website and the classic catalog between now and May 24th so you are not lost! There are major changes to the website and new features in the catalog, so you need to be in the know come Tuesday morning May 25th!

Note: both are still being worked on so there may be links not working or pages not yet updated especially in the classic catalog.  You are welcome to send your comments or suggestions to ask or marketing.
