The RLG Information Center is staffed from 6 am - 5 pm Monday - Friday (US Pacific Time).  Outside those hours, you can call 650-691-2333 and leave a message.  Someone will be paged, and will try to verify if the system is up.  You should try to make sure that the problem does not originate elsewhere before doing this, as our off-hours support is limited to verifying that the system is up during scheduled hours.

Regarding accounts and passwords, all accounts are in the format gg.uuu -- they all have a '.'  A password can be changed if you like -- it must have 5 - 8 characters.  If people don't like entering the account and password, and are using web access, it could be scripted in.  RLG can do a script  if necessary.

Setup.  These pages explain how to configure Eureka® for access to RLG databases

Trials

• RLG Offers Discounted Eureka & CitaDel Service Trials (22 February 1996)
• Inside Information *Plus* - a new CitaDel file (30-day free trial, available for IIN *Plus* and any of CitaDel's other two dozen databases.)
• ILL Manager Trial Offer 1 June, 2000.

We will allow up to two institutions for a 30 day period of your choosing.  We will give technical support via email during that trial period.  I am attaching a copy of the trial use agreement in  Microsoft Word97 format. Please print two copies of the agreement and sign both.  Return them to me and I will dispatch the software to you immediately via federal express.  For the latter we will need a street  address, contact name, and telephone number for delivery.  You may address all questions about ILL Manager to me.  The prices quoted for multiple copies on our web site are for sales to a single institution.  Please contact me with particulars of the number of institutions, number of copies, and amount of annual ILL traffic (loans and borrows).  Please remember that there is no licensing limit on the number of clients that may be loaded, the licensing is per database server.  That is usually equated to an individual interlending  office which maintains a separate database of its own transactions.  Multiple libraries on a single campus can share the same database but all transactions  will be intermixed and might be difficult to sort out if they must be handled by  different personnel.  This is really a matter of workflow for the individual  institution. <John_Eilts@notes.rlg.org>
