Good afternoon member libraries,
As a reminder, an Aspen configuration freeze in preparation for the server migration began today. This means that some functionality for library staff logins has been disabled to help us speed up the migration process on migration day and reduce downtime for staff and patrons. Thank you for your patience.
We have more information on the Aspen server migration and hosting changes on the SWAN support site:

Good morning member libraries,
We are currently experiencing indexing issues in the catalog. Updates to records will not appear and item statuses will not update until these issues are resolved. We are working with our Aspen support and hosting vendor to resolve these issues as quickly as possible.
We will update the known issue on the SWAN support site as we have more information:

Good morning member libraries,
SWAN is making a change to our Aspen hosting and support, which necessitates a server migration planned for Tuesday March 25th- Wednesday March 26th. Some features in the catalog will be unavailable for staff and patrons during the migration.
We have more details in our news post on the SWAN support site, and we will continue to share updates through swancom and the support site during this process.
