New YouTube tutorial troubleshooting your Mentor experience

by Kate Boyle

++ Please share with appropriate personnel ++ Everyone - In talking to member library staff recently we have identified two issues that may impact staff user experience with Mentor. They are both related to the browser : * pop-up blocker * compatibility settings As to your choice of browser, according to SirsiDynix the preferred browser is Internet Explorer. However, a number of our libraries have reported success using Firefox. Lauren has created a short YouTube tutorial on updating your compatibility settings in Explorer along with how to turn off your pop-up blocker. Here is a direct link to the YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieu2ISgwRLQ&feature=youtu.be . The tutorial is also embedded into the Mentor video page on the website as well. https://support.swanlibraries.net/documentation/members-only/1314 If you should be experiencing any problems with Mentor, please check your settings.

*Action Required* Library Enterprise Configuration & Pick Up Anywhere

by Aaron Skog

To SWAN Member Libraries: This is a fun survey. You get to select a theme for the Enterprise OPAC we are building for your library, upload your library logo, and supply some information about your library preferences for the new catalog. There are a number of areas of the survey we anticipate requires some discussion within your library. To assist with this discussion among your staff, the survey is enabled to allow saving in draft form and retrieving it later for completion. In case it isn't clear, there is only one submission per library. Please complete the following survey on Enterprise by End of Business on Friday November 28th. This survey will help SWAN staff as we move forward in the building your new library catalog. You can access the survey directly<http://fs8.formsite.com/SWANServices/form169/index.html> or by visiting the following SWAN support webpage: https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2014-11-06/action-required-survey-en… SWAN is utilizing a series of surveys to collect information about your library. This is survey #4. The sooner we are able to gather this information and begin configuring Enterprise, the sooner you will all have access to your libraries' profiles. If we have not received a response from your library by Friday, November 28th, your Enterprise profile will be configured with the SWAN defaults. If you have any questions, please email MigrationHelp(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:MigrationHelp@swanlibraries.net> Aaron Skog SWAN Executive Director 125 Tower Drive Burr Ridge, IL 60527 Phone: 630.734.5122 Fax: 630.734.5056 aaron.skog(a)railslibraries.info<mailto:aaron.skog@railslibraries.info> http://support.swanlibraries.net
