Library staff accounts are the same as patron accounts with two differences.

  1. Staff accounts use Main (Profile) Permissions Groups with permissions that give access to Evergreen’s staff functions.
  2. Staff accounts have working locations which tell Evergreen which libraries or branches an account can be used at.
