The ReShare Users app is used to manage staff users of the ReShare system. Its primary purposes are to manage permissions and login details.

Note that the Users app is part of the core FOLIO platform and therefore contains data elements that related to other FOLIO applications not used by ReShare. The data dictionary below addresses only those data elements that are relevant to the ReShare system. Any data elements not listed below should be ignored.
