Customizing Resource Sharing Letters
The RSWG is working on instructions for customizing resource sharing letters, but these might be helpful if folks want to get started.
Note: Please backup the letter XSL before applying any changes and use example letters for testing.

Hello, I pasted in Daniel’s code for the Resource sharing return slip letter and it worked great for the partner library’s address. But for our library address, I now have the city twice and no space between the province and postal code, as below.

1400 Barrydowne Rd

Sudbury, OntarioP3A 3V8
Is there anyone who’s come across this issue and might know how to fix it? Thanks!
