SWAN Member Library Staff:
We have received the address change data from Unique and will be updating patron records starting today. The number of patron records sent for processing was 917,567. Of those, 31,349 were returned with address changes for a change rate of 3.4%.
In preparation, today we have temporarily disabled the Symphony function to update Last Activity Date when a patron's address information is changed. Once processing begins over the next couple of days, manual address changes may be overridden by this update.
Refer to the National Change of Address (NCOA) 2024 Update<https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2025-01/94791> news article for more information.

Good afternoon member libraries,
We are experiencing issues with the Boundless APIs, which integrate Boundless into the Aspen catalog. The Boundless app and website are not affected.
To minimize confusion for patrons, we have requested for our Aspen integration to be turned off until the API issues are resolved.
We will update our known issue on our support site as we have more information: https://support.swanlibraries.net/issue/94776
