How do I create Alma accounts for Emeriti?
Answer
After the patron has followed the process at your campus to join the Emeriti, they will need an account in Alma.
In Alma, go to Admin -- Manage Users.
Click Add User -- Public.
Fill out the User Information as follows:
- Name
- wID
- Contact information
- User group (this is what the User Record Type/User Group menu populates) = Emeriti
- Campus
- Expiration (follow your campus's policies on Emeriti account expirations).
- Role = patron
Click Save and continue.
Click Toggle Account type to change the account to External. This will enable Primo login via SSO.
