SILS Documentation

Welcome to the Systemwide ILS (SILS) documentation site for UC Berkeley.

General information

This site contains the canonical versions of local training, policies, workflows, processes, and configurations for the Berkeley instance of Alma and UC Library Search (powered by Primo VE). The site is intended for use by new and existing UC Berkeley Library staff as well as student employees.

Documentation on this site will continue to change as we gain experience in Alma and UC Library Search, and as new features, processes, and policies are introduced. This is expected!

If you notice anything that needs to be updated or fixed on this site, please let us know using the feedback form.
