Emory University Libraries Alma Documentation

Collaborative repository of Emory University Libraries documentation with a focus on Ex Libris's Alma.

Documentation that is general enough to apply to any EUL library will be named by activity, e.g. Suppress a Bib Record; documentation that represents a library's specific, local practice will be preceded by the short name of the library, e.g. Woodruff - Gift Book Collections.
