It’s National School Librarian Day

National School Librarian Day is the perfect time to recognize all that our local media specialists give to schools and students. Take time to thank a school librarian today!

Beginning Monday, March 13th, we’ll skip the scheduled meeting times so you can focus on your business.
However, support is still available! Any new supplier or help desk requests can go directly to Help@GTONetwork.com. Be sure to put the word HELP in the subject line.
If you have other onboarding questions, please email Duane@GTONetwork.com.

New Procedures for Unresponsive Suppliers
The GTO Accuracy Guru team works tirelessly to ensure you have the most current supplier information. However, there are times when even our best efforts don’t get a response.
Here’s how we’re handling it:
- You request a supplier.
- The Accuracy Guru team creates a new supplier in the GTO system or tries to contact the supplier for updated pricing within 24 business hours.
- If there is no response, the team follows up every 3 days for 21 days via phone, email, and voicemail.
- If there is still no response after 21 days, the request will be moved to “unresponsive status” and you will be notified via email.
- Once moved to unresponsive, the supplier request is closed.
If you have information for the supplier or still require their information for an active proposal, please submit another request. We will then continue to try to connect with the supplier periodically for another 21 days.
Community Forum
Don’t forget to check the Community Forum for system updates, advice, and more! Check the My Apps tab in GTO.
Help!
We have an easy way for you to submit a Help Desk request! Just send an email to help@gtonetwork.com and BE SURE TO PUT THE WORD HELP IN THE SUBJECT LINE. This will automatically create a ticket and will email you updates as your ticket is being worked on.
