Pardon the mess! The Support Center is undergoing construction.

Right before winter break is a busy time in the library–that's why Miss Honey saves time with keyboard shortcuts! If you're not on the keyboard shortcut train yet, now's your chance. They are the gift that keeps on giving!
There are four types of keyboard shortcuts:
- Management shortcuts let you add, save, remove, or find records.
- Navigation shortcuts that let you move between modules.
- Circulation Command line shortcuts change screen focus between Circulation tabs.
- Circulation Commands like R and H let you switch modes to Renewal or Hold.
