Additional screens for cataloguers arrived. However, these screens need new data cards. As soon as we received the data cards the screens will be installed.
The centralisation of ECR (electronic course reserves) were discussed at length.
Central authentication (using your PC login & password) to access databases has been temporary suspended. IT is currently working on a system where the client can choose whether they want to use central authentication or the old PIN system.

Five vacant library positions will be advertised.
ACP
The information budget is still under construction, waiting for approval.
I gave feedback on the SAPnet demo as well as our planning meeting we had earlier this month.
Members of the meeting raised concerns regarding the current prescribed list and ERM and we were requested to attend to these issues with urgency.
Finance
Eon reported that monthly statements will be changed to be more user friendly (YES!).
The meeting then continued with feedback from the campuses, but I had to leave because I had another meeting scheduled.
