Weekly Update – August 13, 2013

Revised Collection Notices

Libraries will notice changes in the appearance and content of the collection notice letters. The language has been updated by the Patron Services Committee to reduce confusion and the item information has been corrected to dynamically show amounts still actively owed by the patron.

Communications Change

The companion e-mail to this blog and high priority announcements will be sent out via the Evergreen_Indiana_Updates distribution list in future. Recipients may set-up and control their own subscriptions via the Evergreen Indiana Updates Log-In page. Current recipients of the Weekly Update Newsletter should watch for their subscription invitations this week.
