SCLSNJ Catalog Upgrade & Temporary Closure
We will be upgrading our catalog system to improve accuracy and system performance. To complete this upgrade, all SCLSNJ branches will be closed from Friday, June 19 through Sunday, June 21, 2026. The new system will launch on Monday, June 22, 2026.
New Features and Improvements (Effective June 22)
-
Real Time Catalog: The new system provides a complete, real-time view of all materials, including magazines and online resources.
-
Hold Queue Adjustments: Hold lists will be updated. Your position on a waitlist may change or move up once the migration is complete, so be sure to check you account after June 22.
-
Main Alliance Sharing: While resource sharing within the Main Library Alliance is temporarily paused during the transition, this upgrade provides the framework to safely reinstate full sharing features in the future.
