As shared in the Fireside Chat on Tuesday, May 26th, autorenewal, courtesy, and overdue notices to patrons will resume on Monday, June 1st. Today's news post<https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2020-05/73777> provides details for extending due dates for libraries not yet open.
We know next week will be very busy for libraries. SWAN staff will be working to respond to support tickets and assist. Please remember to submit requests to help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>.

SWAN Library Directors & Administrators-
The online voting to admit three libraries Glenside, Roselle, and Warrenville to join SWAN is now open. The SWAN news post below has a link to the impact study and SWAN Board recommendation.
https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2020-05/73542
The approval requires 65 libraries (2/3 full members) to admit the libraries. I will provide an update to everyone at the Thursday, June 4th SWAN Quarterly meeting which will be held online (agenda not posted yet).

SWAN Library Directors & Administrators-
The ability to order some PPE supplies from SWAN is now available online. The order form is now posted for our stock of face shields, masks, gloves, 1 gallon sanitizer, and hand gel.
SWAN's PPE page (requires membership login):
https://support.swanlibraries.net/documentation/71395
These are for curbside pick up only at SWAN headquarters Tuesdays and Thursdays 12-3pm. You will arrange the pick up date and time within the online order form. This will be contactless pickup-you arrive at the SWAN headquarters foyer and Ginny Blake will have the packed up order waiting for you!
There is no mark-up on the pricing-this is volume discounted orders we are breaking down into smaller quantities for you. The library will be invoiced by SWAN in a few weeks for items ordered and picked up. Pricing is listed within the online order form.

SWAN Member Library Staff,
Please be aware, SirsiDynix will be performing planned maintenance of the Enterprise catalog server on Tuesday, May 26th at 3AM, which will require downtime throughout the process. The maintenance is expected to take no longer than an hour, so the impact will be minimal. Should complications arise or any changes occur, we'll include updates on the news post<https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2020-05/72598>.
Thank you,
