The OPAC includes simple and advanced searching, title lists, and complete record displays. The new mobile format allows search and retrieval access to your library’s OPAC through your mobile devices.

The Template Designer provides filtered access to the standard and mobile templates created by your library for use in EOS.Web OPAC. From the List screen, select separate default templates for OPAC and mobile access. Add, copy, delete, preview, or open for maintenance any of your library’s pre-defined or custom templates. Once open for maintenance, the template designer provides full access to the tools necessary to create and maintain custom templates. Included are predefined layouts and themes to achieve the desired look for your library, drag and drop controls to make menus, links, text, and images available to your patrons, single click functionality to add HTML-based functionality to your OPAC, and a properties panel to allow advanced designers to fine-tune the attributes and placement of any screen element with precision.

Template Designer includes translation services and full style control to allow custom color selections for selected text, mouse-over text, highlights, links, visited links, etc.
