In advance of the addition of the New 19, we have renewed our investigation of the order that libraries appear in when viewing the "Call Number/Item" tab in various wizards such as "Item Search and Display". We were delighted to learn from SirsiDynix that there is now a way to do this, and we implemented it last week.
Items from Franklin Park and Lansing should now appear in alphabetical order according to agency code. If you have any questions please let us know.

We have discovered patrons with ILL_LIBS as a library, including NONSWAN_RB, CHICAGO_P and Internet Access are not able to place holds in the Online Catalog. We are working to isolate and resolve the issue. Holds placed for these users in Symphony are not affected.
Our sincere apologies for the confusion and inconvenience. We will update you when we have more information.

SWAN Public Library Directors, Administrators
Thanks for attending our membership meeting to discuss the membership fee formulas that are proposed for next year's budget. The SWAN Board on Friday last week reviewed the discussion from the meeting and would like to explore the idea of removing the bond amount from the property tax portion of the public library formula.
You can report your bond amount using the online form below. We ask that you do so by Sunday, November 12th 5pm. The 16 public libraries joining SWAN should also respond.

If you haven't read the Fees Committee study and recommendations, here is the link to the report:
