Dial Access is a system-wide extension to LINKcat. Because of this, the catalog display features and other details are not customized in the same way as they are in your local library. If you would like to find materials that are owned by your local library, you may do this using Search Limiting. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the brochure Advanced Searching. If you need assistance using the features of Dial Access, please call your local library or review the LINKcat brochures listed above.
Online help is also available for most features.
You will also need to know how to change the settings in your communications software, and how to use that software to control your modem. The suggested settings are those used by default by many communications software packages. This depends on your software. If you set the modem speed to the highest rate your modem supports, the LINKcat modems will negotiate the best possible connection. All access points connect you to the same Dial Access software in LINKcat, but only one is likely to be a local call for you.
