			<title>Author Alerts Now Available for Sirsi/Dynix Enterprise, Polaris, AquaBrowser and Bibliocommons</title>
			<link>http://engagedpatrons.org/Blogs.cfm?SiteID=1&amp;BlogID=1&amp;BlogPostID=11400</link>
			<description><![CDATA[We&#39;ve been hard at work making Author Alerts available on even more online catalogs. Already compatible are eLibrary and Horizon Information Portal, both from Sirsi/Dynix. What are Author Alerts, you ask?<br />  <br />  Delight your patrons by alerting them when new titles are ordered by their favorite authors! How does it work? Your patrons compile a list of their favorite authors or performers. When a new title is ordered by your library, Author Alerts sends the patron an email or text message alert. It&#39;s that simple. No effort is required of your IT staff. Your active readers are going to love this new service! Visit <a href="http://authoralerts.org/">http://authoralerts.org</a> for details and to start offering this service to your patrons. <P>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Do you like to be on the leading edge of new technology offerings? I&#39;m excited to announce that EngagedPatrons has begun beta testing of the new Author Alerts service.
