Everyone -
Attached is a brief announcement for library staff regarding some of the SirsiDynix features we can anticipate enjoying in the future. SWAN Member Services is very excited about all the new features we will be rolling out to our members and your patrons over the coming year. The Member Services staff will be attending the COSUGI (Customers of SirsiDynix Users Group, Inc.) conference in two weeks and we will be bringing back lots of information to share with all of you. We can't wait to get started. If you should have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

SWAN Member Libraries:
As noted in the April 8th Committee of the Whole meeting, the SWAN Board has been working on a number of modifications to the current SWAN Bylaws. The Bylaws Committee, chaired by board members Sheila Sosnicki and Pierre Gregoire, presented their suggested changes to the membership during the April 8th meeting.
In the link below, the proposed changes are provided to you in a red-lined copy of the Bylaws document, with an attached memo noting the changes. Also included in the memo is the proposed new timeline for the SWAN budget process. These suggested revisions will be voted upon by the SWAN membership at the June 5th Quarterly meeting.
Proposed changes:

Everyone -
Last week we asked Melrose Park Public Library to begin testing a new print template for a transit slip to be used with RAILS delivery. This label prints on the Restick printers and can be used for items being checked in to fill holds. While it works perfectly for those items being sent from the home library to fill a hold at another SWAN library, we are still a tweaking a few other scenarios.
Just wanted everyone to be aware that there is testing going on and you may see one of these labels as we continue to improve them. Have a good week.
