Congratulations on your (possibly unexpected) promotion!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the world of Polaris ILS Administration! There's a lot going on around here and there are so many things to see and do and yeah, we know it can be confusing for someone brand new to ILS administration. And how do we know that? Because at one time, all of us were new at this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So bring your questions, your quandaries, and your quagmires and join us on Zoom! We're here to help!</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 11:17 -0500</pubDate><publishDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 11:17 -0500</publishDate><date>12/14/2025</date><time>11:17 am</time><location></location><link>http://members.innovativeusers.org/Calendar/moreinfo.php?eventid=191472</link></item><item><title>Feb 19, 2026: IUG Forum: Help!

&lt;br /&gt;
Isn't it great that there are some facets of the modern library that run on their own? You've got self checkout machines, self check-in machines, patron registration on the web, and all these options for conveyors and sorters to get library items from Point A to Point B as smoothly as possible. Or maybe you don't have all of that just yet, but you're curious and you've got questions. So bring your questions (and your answers) with you to a combined Sierra and Polaris forum and we'll talk about the ups and downs of self-service and AMH!</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 11:19 -0500</pubDate><publishDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 11:19 -0500</publishDate><date>12/14/2025</date><time>11:19 am</time><location></location><link>http://members.innovativeusers.org/Calendar/moreinfo.php?eventid=191474</link></item><item><title>Apr 12, 2026: IUG 2026 Pre-Conference</title><description>Join us in Chicago, IL for the IUG 2026 Pre-Conference sessions!&lt;br /&gt;
