VIVA has a new support page: https://vivalib.org/va/covid19-telework
Group consensus was that college communication to staff on on closings, remote work, leave policies was very poor. Guidance on the Public Health Emergency Leave (PHEL), etc. and procedures for using that leave were very uneven:
Question from JSRCC: I'm trying to order item barcodes and I don't know what to answer about what kind of mod we use (10, 43?) and check digit. Any clues? I can't get the online catalogs to let me set up orders for quotes unless I fill out those blanks. I know we have 14-digit barcodes and they all start with 3 7219.
Answer from TCC: It doesn't matter anymore, since Alma will read it no matter what, but if you want to maintain the structure it is - Dense code 39 with a mod 10 check digit
JTCC reports an access problem with the Factiva linker, SO will investigate. Access from Primo functions normally, the problem is specific to the linker URL:

SWCC reports local problems with remote access to Gale products, SO will investigate.
