To add or remove members you must use APIs (see above for more info) | After migration | ||
| Consortia manager | (ONLY valid in central tenant) Settings areas that can be manipulated via the consortia manager now have a "source" field with a possible value of "consortia" OR "local" | No action is required but users should be aware they can only edit settings with source "local" unless they're in Consortium Manager. | N/A | ||

| Users | (ONLY applicable if consortia enabled) User type is a required field. For non-consortia environments it is optional but can be used if desired through the UI. | In a consortia environment, users must be given a type of "patron" OR "staff".
