Update on Overdues and Bills

by Samantha Dietel

SWAN Member Library Staff: Overdue notice reports that will run on Tuesday, February 7th are configured to enact a minor "clean-up" effort to bill a small number of patrons that have had materials over 42 days past due but have not yet been billed. Only users that should have already been billed automatically for assumed-lost-items will be impacted. Please be aware that some of your users may see a bill notice after the report is run tomorrow. Following the clean-up, we will continue to carefully monitor our billing reports to ensure the process remains uninterrupted. Thank you, Samantha Dietel Consultant, Member Services samantha(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:samantha@swanlibraries.net> * (630) 326-8647 SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont, IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://www.swanlibraries.net/> * catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/>

*Reminder* RAILS/SWAN Planned Network Outage on Fri, Feb 3rd at 11pm

by Steven Schlewitt

SWAN Member Library & Information Technology Staff: Just a quick reminder of tonight’s planned ICN network outage at 11pm. Please see additional details in the post below. Should the outage require additional downtime that will affect morning staff, we’ll submit further updates via SWANcom. Thank you, Steven Schlewitt Information Technology Manager steven(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:steven@swanlibraries.net> • 630-326-5993 SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont, IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://www.swanlibraries.net/> • catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/> From: swancom-bounces(a)list.swanlibraries.net [mailto:swancom-bounces@list.swanlibraries.net] On Behalf Of webmaster(a)swanlibraries.net Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2017 4:56 PM To: swancom(a)list.swanlibraries.net Subject: [SWANcom] RAILS/SWAN Planned Network Outage on Fri, Feb 3rd at 11pm Message from sender: From the SWAN Support Website: Published on SWAN (https://support.swanlibraries.net) ________________________________ RAILS/SWAN Planned Network Outage on Fri, Feb 3rd at 11pm 01/31/2017 - 16:56 - by Steven Schlewitt SWAN Member Library Staff: We've received notice from RAILS and ICN that network maintenance is scheduled for a provider site in Chicago this Friday, February 3rd, beginning at 11pm. The maintenance and associated outage is expected to last no longer than 20 minutes. The site affected provides network access to many of our SWAN libraries and to the SWAN/RAILS datacenter itself, so SWAN and many individual libraries will be impacted during that brief period. The following SWAN services will be impacted during the outage: - Symphony Server * All WorkFlows access (cataloging, circulation, etc) * SIP2 3rd Party Vendor Integration (databases, electronic media) * SIP2 Hardware/Software Integration (AMH, self-check, PC reservation, print release) - Enterprise * My Account Features * Commerce * Item Availability - Bookmyne - MobileCirc Again, this outage is planned from 11pm-11:20pm on Friday night, so it should not affect libraries during normal operating hours. In the unlikely event that the outage should extend beyond the anticipated timeframe considerably, we'll issue an updated SWANcom to alert morning staff. If you have any questions regarding the outage, please email us at help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>. Thank you. ________________________________ Source URL: https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2017-01-31/railsswan-planned-network…
