FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM
:
Upgrade to 3.4.1 SP2 – We “arrived” on Symphony 3.4.1 SP2 on Wednesday morning, October 24. From all reports this upgrade went pretty well. There are a lot of “CCS heroes” out there who pulled together to make it happen – and to name names we would leave someone out. So we thank those who tested with us, those who got up early or stayed late to get clients installed, our operator who sits an overnight vigil watching backups, our engineers who barely sleep the night of the upgrade, those who might have been dealing calmly with the public when discharge slowed Wednesday morning, and the Maintenance Coordinators who worked on the client installation process with us.

Patron purge
– Circulation staff will notice a slight change with your next monthly patron purge. The new patron purge report sent to us by SirsiDynix now gives us a list of patrons. Previously we produced that list through a separate process. So the purge report will be there, but it is now a one step process.

                   
CCS ABSENCES NEXT WEEK:
Richard Shurman and Linda Zaleski will both be gone for most of Wednesday and the rest of next week to the Sirsi Consortia meeting in Detroit.  (Halloween is always a great night to be in Detroit.)  Please use WonderDesk to report any issues since we may not be able to respond to e-mails quickly.

CCS MEETINGS NEXT WEEK:

Mon., 10/29, 9:30, CCS: Budget & Finance Committee
