Network Bulletin No. 03-05
Date: February 14, 2003
Subject: NLS Web OPAC
Index Term: Migration from Web-BLND to Voyager Integrated Library
System
NLS expects that the Library of Congress will migrate our catalog to the
Voyager Integrated Library System in early March. At that time a new version
of the NLS web online public access catalog (OPAC) will become active. The
Voyager OPAC will be substantially different from the current Web-BLND
OPAC. Instructions for searching the new OPAC will be available online
through context-sensitive help pages and search tip pages. We also expect to
make a text-only version of the catalog and help page available online for
searchers using assistive technology.
When the migration takes place, we will issue a network bulletin and listserve
announcement and will establish links to the Voyager OPAC from the Web-
BLND OPAC. The Web-BLND OPAC will remain available for a number of
months following Voyager's launch but will no longer be kept up to date.
