11:04 sleary Question for people who know Typescript configuration better than I do: I would like to update our lib setting to ES2021 or newer, but would it be advantageous to just use ESNext? https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#lib
11:06 sleary Or would we need both ES2022 and ESNext if we wanted all the latest toys?

13:19 jeffdavis One of these months I will actually make it to the new devs meeting.
14:09 bgillap__ Is it possible to target a circ modifier ID with an opac search string?
14:16 Dyrcona bgillap__: I don't think so.
14:17 bgillap__ hmm... collections bundled a bunch of different things into shelving location "Equipment" but now they want hyperlinks for things like Musical Instruments.... under equipment. lol,
14:18 bgillap__ Might have to rethink how they catalogued that then. haha
14:37 kmlussier joined #evergreen
14:53 kmlussier Hmmmm...if I were looking for Rogan, would I ping Rogan or rhamby? Enquring minds want to know.
14:59 jihpringle joined #evergreen
15:06 jihpringle bgillap_: you could potentially use the My Lists in the OPAC (though a bit of work for staff to build the lists) or put a unique value into a 59X field and then you can do a MARC Expert Search for them
15:29 gmcharlt this happened yesterday, but the blog post is now up: https://evergreen-ils.org/evergreen-sec​urity-releases-3-8-4-3-9-3-and-3-10-2/
15:30 gmcharlt (that is, the releases happened yesterday)
15:30 mmorgan gmcharlt++
15:34 kmlussier gmcharlt++
15:47 gmcharlt and now: https://evergreen-ils.org/ev​ergreen-3-11-beta-released/
15:53 bgillap__ Thanks, it's small collection anyway so not a big deal. They'd rather adjust it by location with this understanding. I think they just forgot since its been a while since they've made new collections because they've never done 1 single location for many types of items before.
15:54 jihpringle joined #evergreen
15:54 bgillap__ We have picnic games now! lol
15:54 bgillap__ Although I'm told by my colleague, the cornhole is not regulation approved cornhole product.
15:55 kmlussier I never realized there were regulations around cornhole.
15:55 jihpringle it's pretty cool all the things that get added to the collection, some of our libraries now have museum passes and ski passes as well as things like sewing machines and baking pans
15:59 kmlussier We've been doing museum passes for a couple of decades here, but it is very cool what else has been going out. My local library even has a karaoke machine now. And another library has an Insta-pot, but I guess that's a bit of a nightmare to deal with.
16:03 Dyrcona Laptops from a vending machine.
16:04 kmlussier None of our members have done anything with vending machines yet.
16:06 Dyrcona Seeds: What is the loan period and how does one return them? :)
16:07 mmorgan :)
16:07 Dyrcona Cake pans actually surprised when I learned of them being circulation about a decade ago. It's a long way from books, magazines, and LP records.....
16:08 kmlussier We use the ephemeral checkout for seeds.
16:08 kmlussier Oops, sorry. Wrong system. Where am I?
16:08 Dyrcona Oof.. Been a long day... Me Egnrish gud....
16:09 kmlussier Cake pans make total sense because you only need to use a special cake pan once.
16:10 Dyrcona Yes. It just had not occurred to me at the time. Now, there isn't much that surprises me these days.... Telescopes? Of course, you loan telescopes, and rakes, shovels, you name it.
16:11 mmorgan If one accrues an overdue fine for a cake pan, I wonder if cake would be an acceptable form of payment...
16:11 Dyrcona :)
16:11 jihpringle I don't remember what library it was but some Evergreen library was loaning out kayaks
16:11 mmorgan One of our libraries had a Roomba, but I don't think they do anymore.
16:11 Dyrcona Only in November/December.
16:12 Dyrcona Yeah, I remember something about kayaks.
16:12 kmlussier jihpringle: I would love to borrow a kayak.
16:12 Dyrcona Over half of our libraries are "fine free."
16:12 kmlussier I wonder if I can convince my local library to get a kayak before I move.
16:13 kmlussier Or maybe I should find a library that lends them before deciding where I'm moving to. Better plan.
16:13 Dyrcona :)
16:14 jihpringle I like that as a deciding factor :D
16:14 kmlussier I most certainly won't use a Roomba as a factor in my decision making process.
16:14 mmorgan Ooh! A metal detector!
16:15 mmorgan And a dremel tool!
16:15 * mmorgan needs to keep up with Library of Things better!
16:32 kmlussier mmorgan: I'm assuming you didn't find any kayaks in your system.
16:34 mmorgan kmlussier: No, I didn't :-(
16:35 kmlussier It's CW MARS. https://sites.google.com/site/​mnspearmemoriallibrary/kayaks
16:36 mmorgan Seems like we ought to have some given our location.
16:36 kmlussier That's a long commute.
16:54 kmlussier Have a nice weekend #evergreen!
16:54 mmorgan You too!
