Goodbye Geac, Hello Migration!

8:45 am today (Monday, Feb. 11) marked the end of Geac. We are using the Millennium Migration System from Feb. 11 to 13 while Geac takes all our transaction data out of their system and we give it to Innovative to put into Millennium. Here are some things you should know:
  • You cannot do any transactions on any Geac PLUS program or on Millennium. No Checkouts, Checkins, Holds, Cancelling Holds, NOTHING.
  • The Millennium Migration System can only do checkouts. All materials returned over the next three days will be stored until we go live with Millennium.
  • Checkout items at the Circulation Desk. They have the Migration system up and running and they know how to use it.
  • You can search the Geac PLUS catalogs (CL-CAT or Geo Web). Just be aware that shelf status is unreliable.
    • Items that are checked out ARE definitely unavailable.
    • Items that are ON SHELF may or may not be on the shelf.
  • You may or may not be able to use the new catalog, http://cmpl.cooklib.org/. Just be aware that the shelf status is unreliable.
    • Items that are checked out may or may not be available.
    • Items that are ON SHELF may or may not available.

If you have questions, ask! Our migration will take only 3 days and we have the promise of Millennium in sight!
