SWAN Library Directors/Administrators:
I have received a few inquiries about the OCLC agreement you received in the mail. Just a reminder:
1. OCLC membership is part of your SWAN Membership, so there is nothing to pay.
2. Sign both copies of the agreement from the State Library and they will send you back a signed original copy for your records.
3. It is important to complete the agreement, otherwise your library would lose its OCLC membership.
If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to me.

SWAN Library Directors/Administrators:
The attached memo is an update on the ProPay accounts and integration within Enterprise. A majority of SWAN libraries are *not ready* for the Enterprise integration, so I urge all directors to review the memo and work with your staff (business manager, etc.) to make sure ProPay is active.
SWAN was testing Enterprise integration on Thursday last week, and took some corrective action with some negative balances that resulted in our 25 cent tests. This is noted on page 2 of the Migration Memo #16 attached.
If you have questions, the memo outlines that these should go to commerce(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:commerce@swanlibraries.net> which will open a helpdesk ticket. Should you wish to contact someone at SWAN, please call me directly using the information below.

To All Member Libraries:
Thank you for your responses to the Enterprise checklist. Using your responses as a guide, we have completed building the external and internal Enterprise profiles. Please see the document "Enterprise URLs" at https://support.swanlibraries.net/documentation/sirsidynix (login required) to review the differences between the internal and external profiles and verify the URL for each. These profiles are live, but please keep in mind the data load has not completed. You will not be able to log in, and there will appear to be errors with the visible data.
Many library staff have contacted SWAN with questions about modifying the catalog search box on their website and updating existing catalog URLs. We have created a short guide to Enterprise linking, available at https://support.swanlibraries.net/content/enterprise-linking-guide (login required). This page includes code for a simple search box as well as patterns for constructing links to specific search results.
If you have any questions, please email migrationhelp(a)swanlibraries.net.
