BC Analytics - What is it good for?
by Jennet Francisco 27 Jul '21

27 Jul '21

I'm looking to chat with other library ninjas who have experience as BC Analytics Admins. Specifically I would like a better idea of what types of custom reports, dossiers, and documents are possible (and useful). If you are utilizing this SIRSI service, and have some reports or dossiers that you utilize regularly, I would be interested in chatting with you. Bonus points if you are a single branch library system. Thanks. *Jennet Francisco *(she/her/hers) Cataloging & Acquisitions DeWitt District Library (517) 669-3156 jfrancisco(a)dewittlibrary.org

Bulletin Board Policy
by Devin Erlandson 27 Jul '21

27 Jul '21

Hello, We are in the process of writing a bulletin board policy, but rather than reinvent the wheel, if other libraries have a bulletin board policy and wouldn't mind sharing, could you send it my way? Our bulletin board is public-facing but we do require all postings to be approved first by the Director. Thanks -- Devin Erlandson (she/her) Assistant Director Allegan District Library 269-673-4625 alleganlibrary.org

OverDrive vs hoopla Flex
by Ahlers, Teresa 26 Jul '21

26 Jul '21

Hi, Does anyone have experience with using the new purchasing model ‘Flex’ from hoopla? We are considering transferring content to hoopla from OverDrive and would like to hear from any library that has either done it or considered doing it. Some specific questions/concerns we have are: *Will it confuse patrons having two lending models in hoopla? *How smoothly did the transfer go? *Will it save budget dollars to purchase Flex copies of ‘popular but not probably going to be a classic’ titles? Thanks in advance! Terrie Ahlers Supervisor Grace A. Dow Memorial Library tahlers(a)midland-mi.org 989-837-3451
