THIS MESSAGE IS ONLY FOR LIBRARIES WHO PARTICIPATE IN THE NJ UNION LIST OF SERIALS

The State Library is now asking libraries who participate in the NJULS to do their own holdings updates. We have contacted participating libraries over the past few months with instructions. We believe we have contacted most of these libraries.

IF YOUR LIBRARY PARTICIPATES IN THE NJULS AND YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY BEEN CONTACTED BY THE STATE LIBRARY, THEN THIS MESSAGE IS FOR YOU.

All other libraries can disregard this message.

Copied below are two instruction sheets for doing serials holdings updates:

Please note that you must log in from the Staff URL, not Iluminar, in order to make any changes.

If there are any questions, please email me.

Thanks.
