Client Addons Directory (ILLiad)

Atlas and OCLC do not support default addons or user-created addons. If you need assistance with using, troubleshooting, or writing addons, please contact Atlas Systems for a custom services quote.

The ILLiad Best Practices forum is an ideal community resource where you can talk with and ask questions of other ILLiad users.

Atlas reserves the right to modify or remove addons as needed and will attempt to notify the addon authors of modifications or removal when possible.

To facilitate continued addon devolvement, addon developers are encouraged to share their code in a repository (e.g. Github). This will allow others to more easily make modifications to the addon or for the repository to be transferred in the event the original addon author is unable to continue maintenance of the addon.

Client Addons are designed for workflow situations that involve item-by-item processing and are usually invoked on an item/request record form. These addons run in the Client and require staff action to initiate. They are installed in a file directory on the local machine and are managed in the Manage Addons form in the Client.

System Addons are a subset of Client Addons that react to certain events in the Client to perform specialized automated processes behind the scenes without staff intervention. These are installed and managed as Client Addons.
