Take Action: Lists & Reading History Some of you have “opted in” to saving your reading history and/or have created reading lists in our current system. With our new online catalog, you will have enhanced options to build and share lists, but your old lists and reading history from our current system cannot be imported. All Libraries making this transition have experienced this. Want to save those lists to your own device? Follow these directions. Need help? Just ask Library staff.
