SWAN Member Libraries,
Batavia Public Library is in the process of applying RFID tags to their collection. Batavia's items will not be holdable to other SWAN libraries for the duration of this process. If Batavia is the only SWAN library that owns an item, please feel free to call 630.879.1393 and request that they send the item to your library. If your patron wishes to pick up an item on shelf at Batavia, please feel free to call 630.879.1393 to request that they pull the item from their shelves.

Please be aware, we're currently experiencing issues with the report that creates the pull lists for the Onshelf Items wizard resulting in much shorter lists than to which you may be accustomed.
For further details on the issues and updates, please refer to the Known Issues<https://support.swanlibraries.net/node/66748> posting on our support site.
Thank you,

Some customizations have to be configured by the app developers, such as your app colors, and requests made after the July 8th may not be implemented before go-live.

Hello,
Did you make changes to your subscription databases (EBSCO, Gale, Scholastic, World Book) at the end of your fiscal year? If so, SWAN will need to make updates to the Article Search knowledgebase and Open Athens allocated resources for authentication.
Please contact Robin Hofstetter at help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> with questions and updates about access links.
