SWAN Libraries,
The Green Hills Public Library District was approved for SWAN membership. The 2/3 voting threshold was met and the SWAN Board took the step of ratifying the membership vote. Congratulations and thank you to all that participated!
SWAN and Green Hills staff have formed their migration teams and begun work with the SirsiDynix migration consultants setting up Symphony. We have set a tentative go-live on Tuesday, January 29, 2019. For details on the library and project, refer to the SWAN Quarterly Meeting packet of September 6, 2018 (page 34):

The Villa Park Public Library will be closed from 9:00 am - 2:00 pm on Tuesday, October 23 for a scheduled ComEd power outage.
Library hours are expected to resume at 2:00 pm and the library will remain open until 9:00 pm on the 23rd.
We would like your help to improve the organization of the support site through a tree test.
The tree test is online, and it should take about 15-20 minutes. You will be given several tasks, and you will show where you would find them in a "tree" or menu structure.
To participate:
* Go to the SWAN Support Site Tree Test: https://n65t10yk.optimalworkshop.com/treejack/swantree
* Follow the instructions and prompts
You can skip any questions that don't relate to things you use on the support site. You will have until October 29th to participate.
Thanks for your help!

REMINDER
The self-nomination survey form is open for the SWAN Circ Advisory Committee 2018 election. Please consider throwing your hat in the ring. The process is very simple, just fill out the form including a brief statement about yourself and what you can bring to the table. We have 4 vacancies to fill. The form is open now and will close on Oct. 26th at noon. On the 26th, I will create the ballot for the Circ Advisory Committee election using all the nomination statements that have been submitted. SWAN members will then have until the November 16th to vote.
Thank you for nominating yourself, and remember now is not the time to be humble. The survey can be found at: https://fs8.formsite.com/SWANServices/CircAdvSelfNom/index.html
More information about the SWAN Circ Advisory Committee along with a list of current committee members see our SWAN Users Group page<https://support.swanlibraries.net/members/groups%20>.
