SierraStarting January 6, 2026, the My Bookshelf bar in Vega Discover will be upgraded to the My Account Portal. This change will happen automatically and will not require additional opting-in on our end. In anticipation of this change, Innovative and PrairieCat have put together materials for libraries to share with staff and patrons.
If someone asks why this change was made:
The My Account Portal brings all account features into a single interface. Patrons can manage checkouts, holds, reading history, fines, saved searches, and bookmarks from a single location. The core functions of My Bookshelf remain, but they are now organized in the My Account Portal with clearer navigation and additional options.
If someone asks if they can revert back to My Bookshelf:
The My Account Portal interface has been enabled for all Vega Discover online catalog sites and cannot be reverted back. This change brings an easier and more intuitive account management experience.
Marketing materials that can be utilized within the library and over social media are available under Services | Marketing Materials. Shortly after the My Account Portal update is released, PrairieCat will create and share informational videos and how-to documents with screenshots to share with staff and patrons. There will also be updated videos concerning Showcase creation and management to align with this update in TalentLMS.
If you have any questions about this upcoming change, please submit to the PrairieCat Help Desk under the Vega Discovery topic.
