Chapter 63. Recent Staff Searches

This feature enables you to view your recent searches as you perform them in the staff client. The number of searches that you can view is configurable. This feature is only available through the staff client; it is not available to patrons in the OPAC.

  3. Click Edit.
  4. Select a Context from the drop down menu.
