1. Click the My TCCL tab at the top left corner of the page.
2. Log In to your account with your username (if you have one) or barcode (your library card number) and your password (which is the same one you used on the old site).
a. The first time you log into the new site, you will be prompted to create a username and answer a couple of account questions.
3. Once you are logged in, hover your mouse over the My TCCL tab. Under the column titled My Collections, click For Later. 
a. For Later is the new home for your saved titles, but you will need to import them from the Legacy Catalog.
4. In the middle of your screen, is a small gray box prompting the migration of your items. Click the red Import List Items button to bring up your saved titles and you’re done!

Making Your Lists/My Shelves Public or Not
Our new catalog includes many social media aspects. You have the option of making your reading/viewing/listening lists in My Shelves (Completed, In Progress and For Later) public.

By default, items on your Completed, For Later or In Progress shelves are public. You decide how much or how little of your shelves you’d like to share with others.

To exclude a title from public view, click the Add Details link to the right of the title to display the pull-down menu, and then click the Keep private checkbox. Private items have a small lock icon next to them.

Items you add to For Later are public by default.
