Answer

How to Get Access

There are 2 types of access whose names seem self-explanatory:

  • Observer
  • Designs Analytics

Requests for access can be sent to libsystems@drexel.edu and must mention which role is needed.


Training

While fields and subject areas are different for each product, the OAS interface is consistent, therefore general training for one product will work for all.

All Ex Libris (the Library systems vendor for the above products) documentation and training is open access.  No logins are needed to access training resources.

Alma Analytics have been around the longest.  These links contain the most detailed training

Esploro has less and shorter training

Additional training is available, but this is a good starter set


Examples

These only work if you have an appropriate assigned role.  SSO login is required.
