Discussion with Donna about transfers - Karen

Review of gift guidelines with staff - Pauline
Pauline has met with the Cataloging Technicians and stressed that IS gifts are to be added to the collection only if they are in excellent condition, there are few available copies within the system, and the material matches an existing bib record.

Starting today, August 2nd, active Zinio app users will receive a message guiding them to download the new RBdigital app. If you are an active Zinio user and do not see the notification, try completely closing the app and relaunching. While the Zinio app will remain active for a time, it will not be supported in any way so it’s important members understand they do need to make the switch sooner rather than later. While inconvenient, there shouldn’t be any serious issues with moving – no magazine downloads will be lost.
