Evergreen Indiana Upgrade

We are in the first stages of preparation for this fall’s system upgrade. It will occur the weekend before Thanksgiving on November 23 and 24. You will want to use Offline Mode or another form of tracking for circulation during that time. Jeremy will notify everyone via the Evergreen Support Listserv when the system is back up and running. We will plan to host an Offline Mode webinar prior to the upgrade, but nothing has been scheduled yet. More information to come!

Share Your Experience

The company behind LibraryIQ is wishing to partner with an Evergreen Indiana library to have them share their experiences with the software. How using the software has improved library experience, circulation, programs, etc. If you are interested, please contact Courtney at cobrown@library.in.gov ASAP.
