You can also dial in using your phone: (571) 317-3122 Access Code: 593-454-013
Additionally, the packet was revised this morning to reflect the following:
SWAN fee chart: the fees adjusted slightly for everyone, with Roselle Public Library District going up due to incomplete Cook County taxes, which have now been adjusted. The effect is the majority of your have fees decreasing by a few dollars (except for Roselle, sorry Sam!).
SWAN EBSCO year-3 renewal: this chart was added after the SWAN fees section. We now have finalized negotiations with EBSCO for the group-purchase increase at 2%, which is lower than the anticipated 3% increase. The chart is after exhibit page 32.
Here is a link to the packet:

WorkFlows is back online and the issue has been resolved. Please sign in at your earliest convenience.
We determined that the issue was caused by a malfunctioning system monitor and an over-capacity storage volume on the Symphony server. We do not expect any further outages this evening.
