- After logging in, Account Summary information will display, with links to other parts of the account, including checkouts, holds, lists, etc.
- When the patron is logged in and searching the catalog, they will, by default search their HomeLibrary rather than all libraries.
- When logged in, quick access to account information and the logout button will always appear in the upper right corner of the screen; click any of the links to jump to that part of the patron account.
