FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:

Next week we will be conducting a  load test on the Web Services instance used for Enterprise. The test will place an additional work load on the Symphony Production Server, the server we commonly call the Workflows Server.  We expect to discover, among other things, what impact Enterprise will have on the server's response time for your library.   We won’t be soliciting comments, but if you notice a difference throughout the week, please let us know.

AUTHORITIES NEWS:
This week, CCS sent a file of 11,489 bibliographic records to Marcive for authorities processing. 10,381 records were updated and returned to CCS, as well as 4,425 new authority records.  All of these records were loaded into our system.

Next week, two more files from Marcive will be loaded into our system. One contains 2994 updated authority records and the other contains 397 new authority records  that were needed in our database, but were not available before this time.
