Thanks for the tips! I added the EMST information to our non-circulating
section. However, I don't seem to have the power to change the unit
name.

Is there something I'm missing?

This is what we did:

In the policy-editing mode in WorldCat Resourse Sharing, under "Unit  
Information," we put in "EMST."

This makes our name show up as "Williamsburg Reg Libr - EMST (VAK)"  
when you look us up in the Policies Directory.

We borrowed this trick from JPL! :)

We also put "ENTER OUR SYMBOL TWICE" in the "Non-Circulating" field.
