Hosting Opportunity Open for 2025 Hack-A-Way
by Rogan Hamby 05 May '25

05 May '25

The Evergreen Project is opening submissions for hosting the 2025 Hack-A-Way. The Hack-A-Way is an important milestone in the annual calendar for the Evergreen contributor community, especially documentors and developers. Hosting requirements: * A clean meeting space for 15 - 30 people. * Working space for laptops. * A TV, projector or other display and video conferencing for using the Evergreen community videoconferencing services for scheduled events. * Adequate bandwidth for the users * A few snacks and forms of hydration and caffeine * Facilitate reasonable hotel accommodations (cheaper is better but no bed bugs) * Although not required it's become tradition for the host to supply lunches This is a great opportunity for institutions to contribute in hosting that is smaller than the annual conference. The event will be scheduled with the host but takes place in the fourth quarter of the year, usually in late October or early November.

Hold Slip and Transit Slip Not Appearing
by Jennifer Pringle 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

Hi everyone, We have one library where the hold and transit slips are not appearing when items are checked in, instead it's going straight to the print preview in Chrome. We've tested and it's happening for this library in both 3.11 and 3.14. I think we must have adjusted something for the library in the past but we haven't been able to figure out what. So far we have ruled out pop-ups being blocked, check in modifiers, Shelving Locations - Hold Capture Requires Verification or Checkin Alert, Auto-Print Settings (Admin -> Local Admin -> Auto-Print Settings), and the library setting "Disable Automatic Print Attempt Type List". Anyone have any ideas of other things to check? Thanks, Jennifer -- Jennifer Pringle (she/her) Co-op Support - Training Lead BC Libraries Cooperative Toll-free: 1-888-848-9250 Email:jennifer.pringle@bc.libraries.coop Website: http://bc.libraries.coop Gratefully acknowledging that I live and work in the unceded Traditional Territory of the St'at'yemc Nations.
