Public access

BNC CataList has a public access level that can be viewed by non-registered users so that anyone can use CataList to find information about books and publishers. This public-facing side will also allow publishers, distributors and wholesalers to link to their catalogues from their proprietary websites.

The public-facing side will be a limited view of everything available in CataList. In general, the public access level allows anyone to view basic information about publishers and forthcoming titles without logging in.
