Bulletin Board

 

 

Mandarin M5 has four or five components making up what we call the Bulletin Board. These are the pictures and links across the top, which you can customize to show scenes from your library and or other graphics with links to other webpages at your institution, or to outside resources such as databases.

 

To customize your Bulletin Board components, you need to go to your Setup page. To get there, you can log into your OPAC and click on the Enter Setup button.

 

This will bring you to the login page for setup. Login.

 

and you come to a page like this. Click on the edit button for the installation you want to customize. Then go to the Bulletin Board button on the left.

 

Here you can see the pictures or graphics. They are numbered from the left. To modify number one, the leftmost one, for example, click on Browse and find the picture you have saved. Then click Upload to bring it into your installation.

 

The corresponding link is up here, numbered the same way. Enter the link for the web page this picture should open.

 

Modify each component with the desired picture and corresponding link.

 

When you are finished, click Save.

 

It is a good idea to then click on the word Setup to go back to the installation list. Click on the name of the installation to open a fresh page, so that you can check and make sure the pictures and links look and work the way you want.
