[ILL-L] RE: EMST

In the "Information Detail" screen, the top part says "Institution  
Information," and under "Institution Name" is the name of your  
institution which you can't change. However, if you move down the  
screen, the next section has the heading "Unit Information," and the  
"Unit" field in this section *can* be edited. It is in this field that  
we put the "EMST." It will ultimately show up next to the Institution  
Name.

I hope this helps!
