FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:

BiblioCommons DNS Hiccup:
Late Tuesday, January 14, BiblioCommons had a brief issue with their DNS management.  It was resolved fairly quickly, but if you encountered access issues then, it’s the likely suspect.

SYMPHONY SERVICE PACK 3.4.1 SP4:
Sirsi has announced the release of Service Pack 4 for our current Symphony Release 3.4.1.  We were planning to go to SP3 when our office renovations are complete.  Everything in SP3 is also in SP4, so our new strategy is to watch the chatter about SP4 for the next month while our renovations continue, then load SP4 onto the Test Server and bang on it for a few weeks before we put it into Production.  We have posted the SP4 Release Notes on our web site on the (passworded) Members Only page.  They are also accessible at this link:
