As the pilot program of Electronic Braille Readers being provided by NLS gets rolling, we have added the records for these devices to all Keystone Hosted libraries as EBH / Humanware e-braille reader and EBZ / ZooMax e-braille reader.
If you are Keystone-Hosted and get E-Braille Readers, you can add them to KLAS using the standard equipment receiving process! Everything has been set up and is ready to go.
For Self-Hosted libraries, you will need to:
Add the new medcode of EBR / E-braille reader (see the screenshot below for details)
Add the Equipment records for EBH and EBZ, using the new medcode for the Type
- Both models should be OPAC Suppressed and the Is Serialized box should be checked
- EBZ should Allow Alpha In Serial Num
- Both models have a Serial Num Length of 7
And of course, if you need assistance, Customer Support would be happy to help!
