Administration Settings

Tools > Administration /admin

The Administration settings are high-level preferences intended for network administrators, IT support departments, or operators with administrator-level permissions. In other words, they're advanced settings used to configure your main Data Station once and then be forgotten.

While every operator with the proper security permissions can access the Administration module, it contains settings that most operators won't be able to configure without help. An operator's access to these settings is governed by their security preferences. Your library's administrator can manage these settings in Tools > Preferences > Security.


Navigation 

Status

These settings allow you to perform maintenance on your library catalog and update your Alexandria program.

Web

These settings allow Alexandria and Textbook Tracker to communicate online.

Database

These settings allow you to set up automatic archives and database maintenance.

Email

These settings allow you to designate an SMTP server to use for sending emails, such as Item Overdue Notices, to patrons and/or staff.

LDAP

These settings allow you to authenticate operator and patron program access.

Checkpoint

If your library utilizes the Checkpoint ILS security system use these setting to enhance your SIP2 protocol.
Actions Menu 

This menu appears on each interface of the administrative settings in the upper left corner. These options allow you to update to latest version, send your library data to COMPanion, log out of the program or quit the data station remotely. 

Check for Updates

If there are any updates available, it will be listed here. You simply click on the version number to initiate the upgrade.

Send Data to COMPanion

If a Customer Support Representative needs your library data for troubleshooting you can easily send it to us by selecting this option and entering the Authorization Code you are provided.

Log Out

This button will log you out of Alexandria, despite if you have multiple windows open.

Quit Alexandria

This option will stop the Data Station from running and log out any active operators.
