The management dashboard window is used to obtain a quick breakdown of events within the library via the quick viewing of statistics for your school as well as community statistics calculated from all hosted sites.
By default, each time the management console opens, the dashboard window will open.
To view the dashboard manually from within management select 'Modules from the top menu, select 'Reporting' then 'Dashboard'.
The first page of the dashboard offers a quick report of useful and relevant library usage statistics.
You can also look at statistics from 'The Community', by clicking the 'Community Dashboard' tab. From here you can view information about resources and loans across all hosted Reading Cloud sites. The top 100 most popular fiction resources for example.
You can enable or disable the management dashboard from opening along with the management window.
