Data deletion for Champaign & Urbana

SirsiDynix finished deleting Horizon items, borrowers, and titles owned by Champaign Public Library & Urbana Free Library over the Christmas holiday.  There are some additional codes that still need to be removed, but these categories are done:

Titles - removed 183,702 bibliographic records

Items - removed 733,670 item records

Patrons - removed 87,445 patron records

Also, we've noticed a reduction in the number of active requests in Horizon - from 39,000 down to around 14,000 active requests.

We will be rebuilding the PAC indexes this weekend,  based on advice from SirsiDynix.  This will affect keyword searching only after libraries are closed.  Any other issues or problems noticed by lbrary staff should be reported to the LINC automation staff at 1-217-352-0047 x1.
