The update broke things, it is working again and the update will happen soon.

So...that happened.

In case you missed it, the 'My Account Portal' launch didn't go as expected. PrairieCat has decided to temporarily revert back to the 'My Bookshelf' interface while the Portal is being fixed. Patrons can now access their account information through the Bookshelf again.

Thank you for your understanding as we work with the vendor to provide an optimal experience for our member libraries.
