More Volunteers Needed for New 19 Sister Library Program

by Susan Ricker

Current SWAN Member Libraries, SWAN is welcoming 19 new libraries to the consortium, with a go-live date in spring/summer of 2018. Throughout the migration, these new 19 libraries will be paired with current SWAN member libraries to have one-on-one sister library relationships. Current and future SWAN libraries will be able to discuss services and products, network, share knowledge and resources, as well as strengthen relationships within the Illinois library community. We believe this is a great opportunity to welcome the new libraries, and know that both current and new members have a wealth of knowledge we've accumulated using SirsiDynix products. We're still in need of current SWAN member libraries to volunteer for the Sister Library program. We'd like to introduce our new and current member libraries at the June Quarterly meeting on June 1 (http://www.librarylearning.info/events/?eventID=24134). After we have enough current member libraries that have volunteered, we will email you to let you know what library we have matched you with, the contact information you'll want to have to interact with your sister library, and more details about what kind of interactions you might want to have with your paired library. The relationships will kick off at the June 1 Quarterly meeting. Currently, the SWAN member libraries that have volunteered to be paired with New 19 libraries include: * Alsip-Merrionette Public Library * Clarendon Hills Public Library * Downers Grove Public Library * Eisenhower Public Library District * Indian Prairie Public Library * La Grange Park Public Library * Matteson Area Public Library * Northlake Public Library District * Oak Park Public Library * River Forest Public Library * Thomas Ford Memorial Library * Tinley Park Public Library * Westmont Public Library If your library has not yet signed up and you are interested in participating, please sign up at https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2017-03-07/swan-sister-library-sign. You can also reach out if you have any questions or would like more information.

SWAN June 1st Quarterly Meeting - Change of Venue

by Brande Overbey

Hello SWAN Member Libraries, Our Thursday, June 1st Quarterly meeting (9:30 a.m. start) was previously scheduled to be held at RAILS Burr Ridge. Due to some upcoming RAILS building renovations, we have changed the location of the meeting to Westmont Public Library at 428 N. Cass Ave. in Westmont. Same day and place, but this means we also will be unable to live stream this meeting as we have been able to do in the past. The L2 meeting has been updated to reflect the change. Depending upon the RAILS construction schedule we will evaluate at a later date if the September Quarterly meeting location also needs to be changed, and keep you informed as soon as we know more. Thank you! Brande Overbey Operations Manager brande(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:brande@swanlibraries.net> * (630)326-7104 *Please note my new email address, address and phone number* SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://www.swanlibraries.net/> * catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/>
