This morning, we experienced a brief outage of the Enterprise OPAC between 7:45am and 8:00am. SirsiDynix's support team immediately identified the issue and were able to resolve it quickly, but we'll continue to monitor the situation throughout the day and investigate the root cause. Should any further downtime be anticipated, we'll issue a SWANcom to notify the membership.
Thank you for your patience.

The Matteson public library will be closed for in-service day on Friday, 7 August. We will reopen on Saturday the 8th at the usual time.
+++ Please route to appropriate personnel +++
We have had a number of requests for a Tech Services Department card for materials that are currently housed in that department for repairs, etc. Please note that you all should currently have a REPAIR user, an ONORDER user, and an INPROC user. If you feel that you would benefit from having another, unique Tech Services Department card that will assign a current location of TECH_DEPT, we can configure that for you. When materials are checked out to a user with a profile of TECH_DEPT, the following will be true:
* Items will display with a current location of TECH_DEPT.
* The due date will be never.
* Items will not be holdable.
* Bills will not generate for these items.
* The "total charges" counter in the item record will not increment.
If you currently have a Tech Services Department card and want the above statements to be true for that user account, please send an email to help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>, and we will give you access to the TECH_DEPT user profile. If you do not have a Tech Services Department card but would like one, please send in those requests as well.
Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. Thank you!

SWAN Member Libraries & Information Technology Staff:
Just to elaborate on the outage somewhat - our work last night related to the upcoming retirement of the Millennium servers, as it allowed us to allocate additional server hardware resources from the Millennium servers to the Symphony WorkFlows servers. The additional resources for Symphony WorkFlows servers ensures increased stability and more flexibility for upcoming SWAN IT system projects.
Thank you for your patience.

SWAN Libraries:
There will be a brief disruption of service shortly after 9PM tonight.
The Symphony production server will be temporarily offline. This will also impact access to the Enterprise catalog.

Everyone -
Just a reminder that SWAN staff are at the RAILS staff retreat in Bloomington/Normal tomorrow. There will be Versatile personnel during the day in the computer room to answer your calls to 630-734-5153. Evening coverage of the computer room will be provided by Unique (this is the company that provides our coverage on the weekend). Overdues and notices will be processed as usual. Feel free to open tickets with any questions or concerns you may have.
For those of you who are wondering, this does not impact delivery to SWAN libraries. All SWAN libraries will get their usual delivery.
