Note

Our recent updates have added cool new features like GG4L and merge patrons. Tell us how Alexandria is working for you!

What's New?

Announcing our partnership with Bound to Stay Bound! Also, we are moving things around in Alexandria and Textbooks to prepare for more changes coming in the next year.




Bound to Stay Bound integration. Do you order from Bound to Stay Bound? Now the items from your orders can be automatically added to Alexandria! Contact our Sales team at 1-800-347-6439 or sales@goalexandria.com and ask about our Online Services bundle.




Circulation updates. We have made a few small changes to Circulation: Renewals is a main tab instead of a subtab and has been renamed “Items out,” you can see shortcuts for all your tabs, Charges History was renamed Payments, and more.




Items Management updates. Yep, we’ve done the same with Items! We moved Copy Notes to be with the other copy information and renamed the Study Programs tab to Programs.


Utility changes. A few utilities have been merged, making it easier for you to find the one you need! If you use Check Out or Change Policy utilities, take a look at the Utilities section below.

Important

If you self-host on a Mac, hold off updating to macOS 10.15 Catalina. Alexandria may be 64-bit compatible in an upcoming release.
