Our scheduled database maintenance has concluded successfully! The SWAN Bibliographic Services team will provide an update in the next few days with some statistics regarding the records changes applied. The Symphony report queue will be catching up for the remainder of the evening, so please refrain from scheduling any new reports. Additionally, normally scheduled library reports for Acquisitions and other functions have been temporarily suspended to reduce tonight's report backlog. We'll be unsuspending all reports to resume normal schedules tomorrow. Thank you for your patience throughout the process.
