Display announcements

If your library uses Vega Discover+, Vega Discover Premium, or Vega Consortia, you can create announcements that appear in the Vega header. You can use announcements to alert patrons to problems such as closures or issues with the availability of digital content.

You can include hyperlinks to provide more detailed explanations, workaround information, and so on.

You can only create one announcement at a time.
