Web Services Third-Party Connector Survey
As previously mentioned, the MSC will soon be adding the Web Services product. Web Services connectors are the new standard for connecting third-party products and vendors to library systems. As we get closer to the implementation date, we’d like to know which vendors and third-party products you either already have that are requesting a Web Services connector or ones that you’d like to get once it’s available. Please fill out this survey by Friday, April 10th: https://forms.office.com/g/K9KRs0DmBZ.
BLUEcloud Analytics (BCA) Folder Update
Starting Tuesday, March 24, MSC admins will be moving the Circulation Statistics folder in BCA to the top level of Shared Reports. The new folder pathway will be Shared Reports > Circulation Statistics. If you have any questions, please open a help desk ticket.
