ILLINET OCLC FY2023 agreement - cover letter misstatement

by SWAN Communications

Hi everyone, There have been some inquiries about a misstatement on the cover letter of the annual FY2023 OCLC agreement from the Illinois State Library. You can disregard the incorrect sentence "[your library] will receive an invoice from PrairieCat that includes the FY2023 ILLINET/OCLC Group Services Membership Fee." Your library will not be invoiced for OCLC membership-it is included in your SWAN membership. Please complete the agreement and return it per the Illinois State Library instructions. I will be updating the SWAN news post with updates if I receive any additional information. https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2022-05/90998 Regards, Aaron Aaron Skog Executive Director aaron(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:aaron@swanlibraries.net> * 630-326-7022 My pronouns: he/him/his SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont, IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://swanlibraries.net/> * catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/>
