CCS News

FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:
3.3.1 Delay – you might have seen this on the listserv. Due to a bug found in the indexes, our upgrade to 3.3.1 will be delayed until May, so please stay tuned to listservs for exact plans. This will have no adverse on our BiblioCommons rollouts early in spring. In fact, staying on the old release helps to ensure stability for our introduction of BiblioCommons as we have been testing the 3.2.1 connection for some time.

BiblioCommons News - significant progress has been made. We have seen BiblioCommons improve our faceting for adult/juv/teen materials, Overdrive consortia are now being accessed properly, and our registration problems have been fixed. There are still some problems correcting a birth year that has been incorrectly set and in the next build at the end of the month the hold queue position should be turned off. As you roll out BiblioCommons, please remember to log any issues to the WonderDesk and we will work with BiblioCommons to remedy the situation.
