Description Christopher Brannon 2026-01-27 23:19:09 UTC
We've wanted staff to be limited to switching libraries to specific libraries in their group.  It makes sense to put a feature in library groups that could limit what libraries they can switch between, if allowed to switch.

Is this about setting library for theirselves after login?

> Is this about setting library for theirselves after login?

Yes.  Currently, if we set the permission on their account to allow them to change libraries, we can't limit to a group.  They can change to ANY library.
Comment 3 David Cook 2026-02-02 00:16:50 UTC
Yeah, that probably makes sense. Superlibrarians will probably have to still be able to change, but for other users... they might be able to have the "loggedinlibrary" permission so that they can change libraries within their group but not outside their group
