Staff Account Permission Groups

Main Staff Permission Groups
Secondary Staff Permission Groups

Every library staff account must have a staff permission group assigned as their Main (Profile) Permission Group in order to access the staff client. Staff can also have secondary permission groups assigned to give them access to special features.

Library directors should consider what functions each staff member needs access to and assign the appropriate permission group.
