What's New for Member Libraries
What's New in WALS

Salutations!
Today’s Topic: Creating displays with other library's materials...and Insert Link shortcut in MS Office.
Just a gentle reminder that borrowing time-sensitive books from other libraries to put on display in your library is not appropriate behavior for WALS libraries. We are asking libraries to honor patron holds and share their holiday materials when patrons place holds on specific titles, but that doesn't extend to "sharing" with staff from other libraries to create local displays of seasonal materials in their library....Read more...
What's New in General
The upgrade of our email system to Office 365 is almost complete. For end users, this means access to the latest version of Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint from any internet-capable computer anywhere. The new system will save on infrastructure costs, and ensure that everyone is up to date with the latest security patches. While we are transitioning, and afterwards as well, you will still be able to use the version of Microsoft Office that you have on your computer. We will be contacting and coordinating with each library before they are moved to the new system.
