Summary

Lake County Library staff said a core database migration will make the online catalog view-only July 27–Aug. 4 and suspend new card issuance and returns processing; library staff expect most services by Aug. 5 and full restoration by Aug. 23.

Christopher Veach, county librarian, told the board the library is migrating its core catalog platform and that certain services will be temporarily impacted from July 27 through August 4. Patrons will still be able to access ebooks and third-party apps (Libby, Hoopla) but the online catalog will be read-only and the system will not process new cards or returns during the migration window.

Veach said most daily services should resume with a temporary catalog on August 5 and that the full catalog and mobile app functionality are expected to be restored by August 23; staff will be available to assist patrons during the transition and the library will publish details on its website.
