Schools: How to enable the updated web logging form for schools

Tags: Logging, Admins, Setup, Web, Schools

Toggling to the new web logging form from the admin view of a Beanstack site

Our new logging experience is available for any library and school site with the “Combined Books Logging” setting enabled. To turn this new logging experience on:

  1. Log or toggle into the admin view of your school site.

  2. Navigate to Setup > Reading Integrity Settings.

  3. Scroll down to “Additional Settings” and toggle on the “Combined Books Logging” setting. For more about this setting, check out this article.

  4. Click “Save” and toggle to the reader view to try out the updated logging form.

This new logging experience includes the following:

  • Usability Improvements: The new form still retains key functionality, like scanning an ISBN or logging with the timer, but it's designed to fit within all standard computer screens, eliminating the need for scrolling.

  • Quick Access to Recent Titles: Readers can select from their 3 most recently logged titles when logging, reducing the time spent searching for their current book.

  • Logging for Multiple Readers: Families with many reader profiles may log for multiple readers at one time.

Note: If you would like to retain the old logging functionality, simply leave the “Combined Books Logging” setting off.
