Hello all,
The CPL website is under construction. Libraries are unable to verify CPL patrons via the website, so please call 312-747-4062 to verify CPL patrons. I am hoping to hear from CPL soon regarding how long the website will be unavailable. I will inform SWAN libraries as soon as I know. Thanks for your patience.

Everyone -
Yes, it is that time of year again. With the arrival of Fall it is now time for the election of the SWAN Circulation Advisory Committee. The Committee is composed of 11 representatives from the SWAN libraries serving two year terms. This year we have 5 seats open for the election, 4 at-large representatives and one representative for the Special/Academic members.
If you are interested in all things pertaining to Circulation, this is the Committee for you! As we migrate to a new vendor this year there is a lot to be discussed. Please consider joining us.
For more information about the process and to submit your self-nomination, please complete our short survey form at http://fs8.formsite.com/SWANServices/form165/index.html
The self-nomination survey opens today and closes on Wednesday, Oct. 1st at noon.

Hi everyone,
Happy Friday!
SWAN now has an enhanced process for loading the records we receive from OverDrive and Baker and Taylor. We are now able to load item records for each subscribing library as we load the bibliographic records. Individual libraries will no longer have to add item records after titles are loaded.
Over the next week, we will begin loading these enhanced batches of records from eRead Illinois, Media On Demand, eMedia Library and My Media Mall. We have included holdings for all libraries on current subscription lists supplied by OverDrive and eRead Illinois. If there are discrepancies, please contact me and I will update the information.
When the first batches are loaded, please do a spot check of the holdings for your library to ensure that the item information is correct.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you.
