Next Generation Melvyl Pilot will soon become UC’s official Melvyl discovery and access service. On June 24th, the pilot will be renamed "Melvyl" and will replace the older legacy version of UC's online catalog. The decision to decommission the old catalog was made after an initial pilot launch in April 2008 and an extensive evaluation phase beginning in August of 2009 that included input from UC students, faculty, staff, librarians, and from those outside the UC system. In addition, three rounds of usability testing were conducted with UC students and faculty, and with users at other World Cat Local institutions.
If you have questions about using the new version of Melvyl, please contact the library.
