SWAN Member Library Staff:
As we continue to work to improve the stability of our Enterprise catalog harvests, we have been working closely with SirsiDynix to reduce the number of individual harvest tasks on our system.
On Tuesday, October 4, SirsiDynix merged our Hoopla harvest tasks into a single master harvest. This effectively reduced 20 harvests to one. Since this method has proven to be successful, we have been exploring other eRC content that may be consolidated.
SirsiDynix has identified 34 of 62 Overdrive subscribers. These subscribing libraries are all members of the MediaOnDemand consortium that do not also subscribe to Overdrive Advantage.
On Monday, October 9, SirsiDynix staff will be merging these eRC harvests into a single master harvest, further reducing the number of eRC harvest tasks on our system. Now that this process has been successfully completed once, SirsiDynix is confident that the impact on users will be minimal. We do anticipate a short period where Overdrive content will be unavailable within Enterprise as the content is removed and refreshed.
During this time, library patrons will still have full access to Overdrive content via the vendor’s website.
We will notify everyone via the SWAN Support site as soon as the Overdrive harvest has concluded and eRC content is once again available.
We thank you for your continued patience as we work to improve Enterprise usability.
