Catalogers Desktop 3.0
Cataloger’s Desktop has migrated to a new platform. Now the first screen you will see asks for a password. We still have IP access so don't be confused. What they are asking for is a personal account login. CD would like you to establish a personal login so you can set up your preferences. If you previously set up an account in the old system, your password should still work.
Our account is still for a limited number of users, so when a whole class is trying to use it you may get a message that the number of users has been reached.
Here's some information from CD about setting up an account:
When you go to use Cataloger’s Desktop the first time after the transition to the new Cataloger’s Desktop service (“CD3") you will have to log in a new way. You should download an “At-a-Glance” instruction sheet from the LC website at:
http://www.loc.gov/cds/desktop/training/2-Login.pdf
A Powerpoint presentation on this subject is also available at:
http://www.loc.gov/cds/desktop/training/2-Login.ppt
In order to provide several key functions and features with the new service, you must establish a personal login. For this login you will use:
Your email address: users@place.edu
Temporary password: catalog (for the first time only)
You will be asked to create a new password, and will then be taken to the General Preference setup.
If you experience any difficulties with this procedure, please email us at: desktop-info@loc.gov
Thank you for your continued support.
