 ===== Group Titles =====

 In some cases however, similar toolbar icons may exist for different purposes - for example on the Readers dialog there are [**Create**] and [**Update**] icons for both Readers and Contacts. In order to assist the user in ensuring that the correct toolbar icon is being selected, the Group Title appears across all of the associated icons.

 ===== The Manager Icon =====
-xx
+{{:pergamonmu:general:toolbar-icon-manager.png?nolink |Manager Menu}} The [**Manager**] toolbar icon appears on all dialogs and is always the last icon on the toolbar. Clicking the [**Manager**] icon on the first OPAC window, with the icon in its 'closed' state will initiate an attempt to log in to Pergamon as a Manager, independently of whether a user is logged in as a reader.
+{{ :pergamonmu:general:general-manager-menu.png?nolink|}}Once a user is successfully logged in as a Manager, the icon changes to reflect an 'open' lock - subsequent selections of the toolbar icon either on the OPAC screen or any other dialog will now display the managerial menu, adjusted for user permissions. It is this menu which is used by a librarian to manage the Pergamon system.
+Available menu options may display differently on different operating systems. On MacOSX and Linux for example, menu items which are not available to the user are removed entirely from the display. On Windows, these menu items may remain but are greyed out ('ghosted'). This display difference is OS specific and not under the control of Pergamon.
+**Note**: Selection of the [Manager Logout] menu option is global. Not only is the current manager user logged out of the system, all Dialogs which require managerial access are also closed and Pergamon returns to its OPAC-only state.
