Miss Honey wants to help teachers create saved lists in Researcher with books their students can choose from for class reading. Let’s walk through how she (and you!) can create saved lists, then make them into explore panes so they are easy for students to find!

Miss Honey and her staff are having a back-to-school book fair, and are looking for a way to get the word out to patrons, teachers, and parents. What better way than by building a Bulletin Board in Alexandria!
The beginning of a new school year is a great time to refresh and expand your knowledge of how to utilize Alexandria, and there’s no better way than with your very own virtual librarian!
Whether for a reading program or to see what the next book is in the series, chances are you’ve had patrons asking about previous titles they checked out. Did you know that your patrons can access their own reading history through Researcher?
Even if we like to think otherwise, covers are an important way to quickly judge the genre and topic of any book. You can make your collection more visual by filling in the cover art for your titles. But how do you get cover art?
Some of Miss Honey’s teachers created reading lists they want to share with their students. Now they can make any of their saved lists ‘Searchable’, which means other people can view them by going to Browse > Saved Lists. Students can make searchable lists too–it’s easy!
Add a welcome message or important seasonal information like upcoming holiday hours to your Researcher home page.
Brand your Researcher hub for a seamless transition between your school’s website and Researcher. Your students will know they’re on the right page.
When an item is lost or discarded, you may want it to remain in your database for a period of time. If you don’t want patrons to see these items in the meantime, the solution is simple with Alexandria’s Auto-Hide feature.
We’re introducing our brand new search beta, and it seems like the perfect time to review advanced search and Boolean logic in Alexandria.
