The next step will be to test fiscal period close. Lorry Zeugner, Charlene Billups and Phil will be visiting the Ex Libris offices in Chicago next Wednesday to review the process and make any necessary changes. Lorry Zeugner reported to Phil that EL has offered to manually enter initial allocations, if necessary, to complete the fiscal period close process on schedule. Sue reported that undergraduate and graduate monographic and journal notices were run, call numbers were manually added to each notice, and the Tower searched. Social security numbers also need to be added manually and then information can be sent to Student Accounts.
Circulation is next concentrating on graduate courtesy notices, then other patron categories.
She has been in contact with Maureen Zajkowski from SUNY regarding the specifics of the visit. Notre Dame staff have been contacted regarding this visit. AWG advised that MALC staff in specific areas be invited. Kevin Blowers will also attend the circulation break out session. Kate Ward will also be invited to join the circulation session.
