Connect with the Follett Digital Platform

To access any Follett Digital resources you or your district buys, you need to connect Destiny Library Manager to the Follett Digital Platform. This also ensures proper use of Destiny Discover and Collections by Destiny.
Whether your Destiny system supports a single site or a district, you need to connect the Follett Digital Platform at the district level. This process automatically connects all existing sites in the district and any you add in the future.

  1. Log in as one of the following:
    • District user (with the permission, Manage Library Materials for the District)
    • Site user (with the permission, Allow Follett Digital setup)
  2. Select Catalog > Search Setup > Digital sub-tab.
  3. Under Follett Digital Setup, view the Connection Information details to see if the district or site is connected.
