Hello SWAN Member Libraries,
Today, we've updated our current catalog with a few messages to patrons. There are now messages in the main search screen and the account screen regarding our migration; feel free to check them out! The main screen message reads as follows:
** EXCITING NEWS!! The SWAN catalog will be upgraded to a new system on April 14th! Please take a look at our brand new patron site here<http://new.swanlibraries.net/> **
Please log into your account to see important notes about logging in to the new system.
The catalog web address (https://catalog.swanlibraries.net) will remain the same. However if you've bookmarked pages within the catalog those will probably need to be updated.
And the message in the account screen is:
Important Note: We will be migrating to a new system in April and will be unable to bring your wish lists over. Please review your wish lists and export any you wish to save.
Thank you,
Brande Overbey
