Everyone –

 

Just a reminder about the Symphony “Guts” Training kicking off this week.   Just what is Symphony GUTS, you may ask.  Everyone in libraries loves acronyms GUTS – Greater Understanding of The System, perhaps.   Or an explanation of the “guts” of the SWAN software?   I prefer to think of it as an explanation of the “butterfly effect” -  how what happens in this part of the software, effects the behavior in this part of the software.   However, you prefer to think of it, we will be sharing our understanding of how the Symphony software works. 

 

Topics include: migration and mapping, Circulation configuration (Circ Map and Hold Map), Cataloging configuration (Item types, item categories, and locations), Enterprise (facets, searching, harvesting).  

Above all there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions.

 

There are numerous opportunities to attend a session, including the opportunity to attend the online webinar on August 6th.  Click on the links to register.
