For libraries using ExpressLane -- status

by Kate Boyle

+++This message is for libraries using ExpressLane for their self-check workstation+++ +++ Please route to appropriate personnel +++ Everyone - Thank you for your patience and cooperation during our upgrade. If you are a library that uses the III ExpressLane product as your self-check and don't allow patrons to pay fines at the workstation, you can start using your self-checks now. If you have a credit card scanner and have implemented Ecommerce at your ExpressLane workstations -- your Circulation Department has been contacted by SWAN Member Services to conduct a test of Ecommerce at your ExpressLane workstation. If your Ecommerce test was successful, you can begin using your self-check workstation and allow patrons to pay fines at the self-check. If your Ecommerce test failed, you have the option to still use the workstation as a self-check and remove the credit card scanner from the workstation until the Ecommerce problem is resolved. Or you may wish to leave the self-check workstation disabled until the Ecommerce problem is resolved. Either way SWAN Member Services will be working on resolving your issues with Ecommerce and will get back to you as soon as the problem is corrected by Innovative. Thank you for your patience, please let us know if you should have any further issues at 630-734-5153. Kate Boyle SWAN Member Services Manager 125 Tower Drive Burr Ridge, IL 60527 Phone: 630.734.5162 Fax: 630.734.5056 kate.boyle(a)railslibraries.info<mailto:kate.boyle@railslibraries.info> http://support.swanlibraries.net

Upgrade yesterday

by Kate Boyle

+++ Please route to appropriate personnel +++ Everyone - First and foremost we would like to thank all of our SWAN libraries for their cooperation and patience yesterday during our upgrade. We did have a number of issues that delayed us in re-establishing your access to SWAN. Those issues have now been resolved with your assistance. Unfortunately, we were unable to get all of the offline files run last night due to high processing levels on SWAN. SWAN computer room staff are still working through the files and updating them one at a time. We should have them all processed this evening. Once again, SWAN staff would like to thank all of you for your cooperation. In addition, we would be remiss if we didn't thank those libraries and staff members that went the extra mile to come into work early and start testing with us at 7 AM yesterday: * Cicero PL - Vickie Totton * Eisenhower PLD - Peggy Tomzik * Elmwood Park PL -Ahren Sievers * Melrose Park PL -Cindy Maiello-Gluecklich * Oak Lawn PL -Marcin Truty * Oak Park PL - Ian Nosek and the Material Services Dept. * Prairie Trails PLD - Sheri Starr Thank you all. And as a reminder : If you should experience any problems or have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us at 630-734-5153 or help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> Please do not assume that someone else has reported a problem you may have encountered, SWAN staff would rather receive duplicate reports of a software problem then not be notified. Kate Boyle SWAN Member Services Manager 125 Tower Drive Burr Ridge, IL 60527 Phone: 630.734.5162 Fax: 630.734.5056 kate.boyle(a)railslibraries.info<mailto:kate.boyle@railslibraries.info> http://support.swanlibraries.net
