- Edmond and Northwest sorters have been installed. There are a few issues and configuration requests that we are working to resolve.
- The older tags are being rejected. In addition to the IT team working on this issue it has been escalated to the manufacturer, Lyngsoe, for assistance. This same brand of sorter is used at the service center and Belle Isle without experiencing the same issue. We are confident that it can be resolved soon.
- Lyngsoe is working to enable email receipts for checked in items. They are working with TLC to address an issue where spaces are being added to the guests’ email address.
- Tricia is working to update the sort tables as requested by the locations for various processes they would like to adapt for their library.
- Northwest meeting room AV system update has been completed. The installers will conduct training on Wednesday.
- AV upgrades will begin at Downtown in 2 weeks. The auditorium will be tackled first and then the Children’s programming room will follow.
- E-Rate Category 2 RFP will be released on Wednesday. This will be for replacement switches, switches and wireless access points for Edmond YMCA & Library and licensing costs.
- Windows 11 – We will be starting on updating staff computers at other locations soon. We reached out to each location so everyone is aware of when their location will be affected.
