Patron Access


                          Searching in C3
Patrons are able to search by the following information:
  • Course ID, course title, course pseudonym, course note
  • Document ID, document title
  • Instructor name
  • Author

All search screens are virtually identical to simplify the searching process. Patrons are able to enter text to search by or use the browse function to view all information available in the database.

When listing author, instructor or course records, patrons are able to view the record information, or display documents associated with the selected record. Patrons are then able to ‘drill down’ to a list of attached document records.

                          Viewing & Printing
To view pages attached to document records, a patron simply selects the document and clicks on a button. The C3 viewer allows patrons to view pages, and select pages from a document to print. C3 calculates the total price of printing based on a per page or total document fee and informs the patron of this cost. A coversheet with the patron name segments print jobs.
                          Security
Patrons are only able to view record information, display pages of a document and print selected pages. They are not able to alter any information in the database. The software can be set up to require a username and password to exit the public program. Patrons are unable to access the server directly.
