Alma Letter Customization Workshop
Presentation Topic Description
This workshop will focus on customizing the notifications sent to patrons via the ALMA Letters system. In this workshop, we'll start with an overview of the system, leading into a "hands on" demonstration of the various aspects and features of the tool. We'll provide real-life examples of customizations, ranging from simple (adding/removing fields) to complex (conditional cancellation and logic formulation), and give attendees the chance to suggest modifications/workflows that will be addressed in the group setting. This workshop is geared towards those who have recently migrated to ALMA, or for anyone ready to go in-depth with ALMA Letters. Attendees will leave the workshop with a suite of tailored and well-structured letters that can be used or adapted for their individual library, and the confidence to explore the possibilities provided by this tool.
Pre-requisites:
- Basic HTML knowledge
- Basic understanding of XML/XSLT
