TLC Patch Upgrade Planned for this Weekend

TLC will begin a patch upgrade process this weekend after the close of business on Saturday August 1st.

Enhancements to the PAC will include

Local Call Number Searching

The option to suppress the display of Lost or Missing items from displaying in the PAC.

Browsing a virtual shelf

Enhancements for LS2Staff include the ability to apply cumulative checkouts across multiple holdings codes

The ability to copy borrower information across a group of related borrowers.

The upgrade will require a reimport of the database which will take 24 hours after the upgrade is completed in time to open Monday morning.

NCLIVE embedded passwords

The staff at NCLIVE is preparing to sunset support for the embedded password links that we use on our remote resources page. The links will still work, patrons will just be required to enter the current password before they can access content remotely. They will be removed shortly.

Continuing Education Survey

The State Library and its Continuing Education Advisory Committee (CEAC) invite you to participate in a new Continuing Education survey.  The purpose of this survey is to collect information that the CEAC will use to recommend a continuing education plan for 2015-2016.  Your responses will help us identify the most important topics and set training priorities for the coming year.  The survey is anonymous, quick, and open to everyone in the NC library community!  

We want to hear from NC library staff in all types of libraries so please share this announcement and the CE survey link with others in the NC library community.  This year’s CE survey will close on Friday, August 14^th.  Please contact CE Consultant, Kelly Brannock, at the State Library if you have any questions.

Thanks for sharing your opinion!
