SWAN Member Library Staff:
This morning, we experienced a 10 minute outage of the Enterprise OPAC. SirsiDynix has already resolved the issue and identified it as a SirsiDynix system-wide outage.
We do not anticipate further disruptions today, but we'll send additional SWANcoms should the issue reoccur.
Thank you,

SWAN Member Libraries,
On Tuesday, November 1, SWAN will be holding its November Committee of the Whole meeting<http://www.librarylearning.info/events/?eventID=23450> at Tinley Park Public Library (7851 Timber Dr, Tinley Park, IL 60477), beginning at 9:30 a.m. This will be an informational meeting to discuss the logistics of LINC and MAGIC libraries joining SWAN. The SWAN Board will be answering questions that members have voiced, as well as take the opportunity to hear any other concerns you may have. We will also hear from Anne Slaughter, RAILS Director of Technology Services, on the details of RAILS LLSAP grants and how RAILS will offer support to this project.
There are two important documents that will be discussed at the meeting tomorrow:
1. SWAN Recommendations on Expanded Membership: Budget & Costs Information<https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2016-11-01/pa…>
2. SWAN Recommendations on Expanded Membership: Recommendations for January 2017 Adoption Process for LINC & MAGIC Libraries Joining SWAN<https://support.swanlibraries.net/system/files/Public/SWAN-LINC-MAGIC-white…>
You can also view the agenda here<https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2016-11-01/ag…>.
Because this meeting will be held off-site at Tinley Park Public Library, the meeting will not be recorded or streamed online. We hope to see you in person tomorrow at 9:30 a.m.
