Weekly Update – September 1, 2017
2017 Tour Update: Region 3
Executive Committee member Nancy Disbro (ADTPL) (the regional representative to the committee for that area) joined us on the road as we visited most of the Region 3 libraries this week!
In case you’re interested in tracking our progress, there is an interactive map (with links to the full sized profile cards) now available: 2017 Tour. We’re going to be on the road a lot in the next few weeks with visits, so thank you for your patience if it takes a bit longer to get back to you than usual.
New Circ Mod Available
The newly approved circ mod, “equipment-restricted”, is now available for use. We will make the adjustments to the existing circ mod so that it follows approved revision on September 15. As a quick reminder, the new circ mod will have the short circ durations, no renewals, and be limited to adult accounts (based on age). The existing circ mod will move to longer durations, retain the renewal, and be available for all ages.
ECKRT Call for Assistance
Eckhart Public Library continues their recovery and are at the phase where they need additional shelving, tables, and comfortable seating. If you are in the Northeast region (or are willing to bring things up) and have anything you’d like to share, please email the library!
Holiday Closure
The STLIB will be closed in observance of the Labor Day holiday September 2-4, 2017. INfoExpress deliveries will also be suspended.
Deadlines
The next barcode/library card pool will be held October 2-6, 2017. Please check your stocks now!
