Schools should have at least one person who will take on the Librarian role and overall responsibility for managing the school’s library system. Librarians have full access to all system features.
When they first log in, librarians see the Librarian Dashboard. From this Dashboard they can see key information about their library at a glance and navigate to other areas of their library site.

Creating Librarian users
Libresoft staff add the initial librarian(s) during the migration/user setup.
- This librarian is sent an email containing an activation link for their account.
- This link can only be used once and automatically expires after a few days.
- On clicking the link, the username and password are shown on screen. These should be copied to allow the first login.
- Once logged in, the librarian should change the password. This can be done under Settings > Reset Passwords. Minimum password requirements must be met.
Once logged in, librarians can create additional Librarian accounts themselves (Users > Add/Manage Users). Only Libresoft staff can remove Librarian accounts from the system.
Logging in as a Librarian
Librarians click the Librarian Login button on the Home screen. They are then prompted to enter their username (or email address) and password into the Librarian Login box.
