Thank you to all library staff for your cooperation this week. From Tuesday to Friday, library staff submitted 478 tickets. 78% of those tickets have since been resolved, and a number are pending additional testing. Please continue to use the ticket system to report data and configuration issues. SWAN staff will continue to monitor tickets throughout the weekend. Phone coverage also continues, as outlined in Migration Memo 17: Support and Communication: Saturday 9-5 and Sunday 11-5. * Holds: Holds processing has gone well today. SirsiDynix has monitored the system, and it appears everything is in order. Please continue to follow prompts from Workflows. Holds are enabled in Workflows and Enterprise. * Pull List: The pull list will be processed on Tuesday. On Monday, we anticipate that libraries will experience a higher volume delivery than usual. * Notices: Overdue and Courtesy Notices are now scheduled and running. We will schedule and begin running Hold Pickup notices early next week. * SIP connections are up and running. Please report any authentication issues you might encounter. * Data Issues Updates - The updates below are not comprehensive. There are additional issues that SWAN is tracking, and will report on soon. Have a wonderful weekend! ___ Patron Address Changes: We learned yesterday that during our patron data cleanup, a number of patrons who reside in cities that share zip codes with neighboring cities had their addresses incorrectly updated to their neighboring city. We have received a file contain a list of users potentially affected, which we will review today before SirsiDynix updates the user records to reflect the correct city. This file requires some manual cleanup before it can be loaded. RESOLVED: User records have been updated with corrected cities. Please note, there is no way to be 100% precise, and some manual cleanup at the library level may be needed, but this should resolve the issue for most users. ___ Items with autogenerated barcodes: A number of items were loaded into Workflows with autogenerated barcodes. This produces an "Item Not Found" in catalog error when scanning barcodes during check in and check outs. The cause of this problem originated within Millennium when the item was created. In some item records, barcodes were entered by library staff as a MARC field, which could not be included in the data export. As a result, the corresponding item records were loaded with autogenerated barcodes. RESOLVED: Items incorrectly assigned an autogenerated barcode have been reassigned their proper barcode. Resolving this issue also corrected some problems with users missing checkouts or holds on their accounts. There are about 70 additional auto-generated barcodes we have identified and will correct. ___ Items with missing call number pre- or post-stamps: The cause of this problem has been identified, and a list of affected items has been developed. SWAN has supplied SirsiDynix with a list of corrections to make. These errors are due to a number of issues, including call numbers entered as non-MARC, nonstandard call number formats, and data entry problems from Millennium. RESOLVED ___ Patron names displaying in wrong order: Users entered into Millennium without punctuation separating Lastname Firstname are not displaying properly in Workflows. RESOLVED: Please note, there is no way to be 100% precise, and some manual cleanup at the library level may be needed, but this should resolve the issue for most users. ____ Item Types Unknown: These items have been identified and will be remapped to their proper item types. IN PROGRESS: Most of these have been resolved. SirsiDynix is finishing cleanup of these items. ___ Patrons with incorrect barcodes: A small number of users had their barcodes changed last week between April 6 and 10th. They were loaded with their previous barcode. They should now be updated to reflect the more current barcode. RESOLVED _____ Item Status: Items with current locations like Missing, Display, and Repair should be checked out to a corresponding system use user. RESOLVED _____ Serials call number: Dewey numbers were being pulled from bib record where a call number was not present. These call numbers have been replaced with the word PERIODICAL. Sam will send further instructions on serials call numbers moving forward. RESOLVED _____ Uncatalogued Titles: A number of bib records displayed UNCATALOGUED TITLE instead of the actual title. This was due to an anomaly during the data load, and has been corrected. If you continue to see this error, please report it. RESOLVED.
