This March, Westchester Library System, provider of our computers and computer systems, will be upgrading to a new system which includes the online library catalog. In order to accommodate this upgrade, the library will be CLOSED on MONDAY, FEBRUARY 25 from 12:00 to 5:00pm, for STAFF TRAINING. This will be a massive upgrade to the computer system that runs all the library transactions, i.e. circulation, acquisitions, cataloging, and more, at all 38 libraries that form the Westchester Library System. We are closing so all members of our Staff (full and part-time) can be trained at once. Don’t worry, once the new Integrated Library System (ILS) is launched we’ll be training the public so they (YOU) can take full advantage of the new system.
