Record Index Errors due to Overnight Maintenance Issues 6/29/2021
by SWAN Communications 29 Jun '21

29 Jun '21

SWAN Member Libraries & Cataloging Staff: Please be aware, last night we countered another abnormal ADUText report, which handles our daily record maintenance and processing. This previously occurred last Wednesday, 6/23/2021. We may encounter record issues throughout the day until SirsiDynix is able to repair the affected records. These issues will most likely impact records that were added/deleted/updated yesterday and are typically in the form of "heading keys need to be indexed" errors in WorkFlows. You may see these errors when searching, modifying, or checking in/out the impacted records. You also may not be able to search certain records via WorkFlows. A workaround for the record searching issue is posted in the Known Issue<https://support.swanlibraries.net/node/86815>. We've escalated this issue to SirsiDynix Support. If you come across affected records, please email a list to help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> and we'll forward them to SirsiDynix for further investigation and temporary correction. We'll post additional updates to the Known Issue<https://support.swanlibraries.net/node/86815> as new information becomes available.

This migration will only disrupt the SWANcom service for a brief period as the server is migrated. No other SWAN services will be impacted. ACTION NEEDED: If you have not already, please whitelist the @list.swanlibraries.net domain and/or swancom(a)list.swanlibraries.net<mailto:swancom@list.swanlibraries.net> in your email client. This will ensure emails from the new server are not routed to spam/junk folders. If you're using Microsoft Outlook, you can do this by right-clicking any SWANcom email message (including this one) and selecting Junk > Never Block Sender's Domain. If you have any questions or suspect you are not receiving SWANcoms following the migration, please let us know by emailing help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>. Further updates on the migration can be tracked via the support news post<https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2021-06/86735>.

OCLC fiscal year 2022 renewal agreement
by Aaron Skog 02 Jun '21

02 Jun '21

To Library Directors & Administrators- The FY22 Illinois State Library/OCLC group services agreements are being sent via email this year. We have learned there is a delay in emailing the agreements. Expect to see your renewal agreements within the next week. As in the past, individual libraries sign the agreement with OCLC and return it to the specified address. SWAN receives the combined invoice for payment. OCLC membership is included in your SWAN membership fees. If you receive an invoice from OCLC, please submit a help ticket with SWAN and attach that invoice. Do not pay the invoice directly.
