Board Member Landry congratulated staff on completing the integration to
the Inland Library Network (ILS) and upgrade to the public access catalog
(PAC).
Board Member Landry inquired about the process for addressing user-
experience issues with the new system and how hold queues are
addressed. Ms. Rolfe responded that every interaction is unique and we
go through the transaction history and patron record history to resolve
issues. Ms. Rolfe stated that staff is trained to advise patrons that we
cannot guarantee when the hold is going to be available until the item is in
our hands. Since joining the Inland Library Network we have had a good
record and are getting the items into the patron's hands within five to
seven days of the items being available.
Board Member Landry inquired about the patron count metric. Ms. Mellon
responded that that the patron counts is a physical traffic counter of
patrons entering and exiting the Library front door.
Board Member Sunseri inquired if Moorpark patrons have priority to hold
items. Ms. Rolfe responded that items belonging to Moorpark City Library
are always made available first to the Moorpark Library patrons.
