Hello everyone- The approval to admit Addison Public Library crossed the required threshold of 2/3 of the membership with 71 "yes" votes. The ballot will remain open until February 22nd or if all 100 electronic ballots have been cast. I would encourage those of you that have not used the ballot system to participate! Thanks again to those of you who have participated and brought this process to a swift conclusion.

This vote will utilize the Survey & Ballot System, which sends a unique login to each of the 100 library directors or designees. I have sent that email to the 100 library representatives a few moments ago. If for some reason you have not received the email from Survey & Ballot Systems by this afternoon, please contact me directly and I will look into the administrative interface. It is possible to resend the login information or adjust the recipient. The full details of Addison's request and the SWAN Board recommendation is available on SWAN Support under a news post. You can read the recommendation within the Impact Study presented. https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2023-01/94038 Regards, Aaron Skog Aaron Skog Executive Director aaron@swanlibraries.net<mailto:aaron@swanlibraries.net> * 630-326-7022 My pronouns: he/him/his SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont, IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://swanlibraries.net/> * catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/>
