In response to service provider feedback, we have encouraged institutions to change the title of their Cobrowse 3 script, which describes how a patron can authenticate into the databases at their library. The script should now be called Local - Authentication, which is a little more self-explanatory than Cobrowse 3!
For example, the UBC Local - Authentication script reads:
"To log into a database, you will need to set up VPN or go through the UBC rewriting proxy, both which require your Campus Wide Login (CWL). Instructions are available here: http://www.library.ubc.ca/home/proxyinfo/"
Once you've picked up a patron call, you'll find the Local - Authentication script listed at the bottom of the Patron Library list of scripts, and at the top of the My Library list of scripts. Remember, the Patron Library scripts will be ones specific to the patron's institution, and the My Library scripts will be those specific to the service provider's institution.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me!
