Re: Conversion Phase of Silver Upgrade

[Deb Bergeron <bergeron at macalester dot edu>]

Yes you will have to update authorizations past the 300.  You can get a 
complete list in the Silver Manual.  Call III to get that list and the 
manual number.  It would be a good idea to get this list to all of your 
institutions if you're a consortium or to the managers of each module.  
There's authorizations for cataloging, circ, acquisitions, etc.  WE 
couldn't really test the modules without updating the authorizations.  
As you know, only one person can update one set of authorizations at a time.

You won't be able to see the new authorizations until after you upgrade 
to Silver. 

Then you'll need to start working on updating the wwwoptions and OPAC 
options to gain all the additional Silver functionality within the 
OPAC.  I'm working on that now.
