Hi SWAN Libraries, Just a reminder that tomorrow's Quarterly meeting will be held at Westmont Public Library (428 N. Cass Ave.) rather than Burr Ridge due to the ongoing construction there. There will also not be a live-stream tomorrow since we do not have access to the streaming equipment. We hope to see you tomorrow!

WorkFlows slowness and invalid sequence errors

by Ian Nosek

SWAN Member Libraries and Information Technology Staff: Our Production server encountered a period of high load average this evening. Your WorkFlows sessions may have slowed down or generated errors during this window from approximately 4:40-5PM. The server load has normalized and WorkFlows is functioning smoothly now. However, if you are encountering an "Invalid Sequence Number" error, please close your WorkFlows session and open a new session. This should clear up any lingering errors. We will continue to monitor the server this evening, but do not anticipate any further issues. Thanks for your patience.
