Group Editor

 

Oasis uses an elaborate, hierarchical security scheme that enables the librarian to assign levels of access for cataloging, circulation, searching, and database maintenance functions. Security in Oasis is implemented through the use of Group Editor. Group Editor creates, customizes, and modifies the group permissions required to gain access to Oasis functions. Groups are created with customized sets of parameters and privileges. The three default group types are patron, item, and special reserve. An unlimited number of each group type can be created. Items and patrons can be moved in batches to different groups for quick updating.
