Event reminder improvements
All users: Personal reminders set on the notices for upcoming Events will now transfer over via the .ics file when the Event is added to an external calendar. Previously, users would have to set their calendar's reminder feature manually after adding an Event.
Moving Library items between Volumes (gradual rollout)
Volume Librarians will now be able to move Library items between two of their own Volumes.
NOTE—similar to the recent “commenting permissions for Google Library items” feature that arrived in Jelly, this will also follow a staggered release model, with the target of being fully rolled out to all customers by the end of the year.

Release cycle theme: Sweet treats
Did you know that modern lollipops can be traced back to the 17th century? During this period, sugar became more affordable and readily available, so treats like boiled sugar confections became popular. These confections would be placed on sticks so people could eat them without getting their hands all messy and sticky.
Fast-forward to 1908 and we have the first "lollipop" branding (apparently named after Lolly Pop, a race horse) and the first lollipop machine, which automated the process of placing the hard candy on sticks at a rate of almost 2,000 an hour. Today, Tootsie Pop is the largest manufacturer of lollipops, and with their automated process, they churn out 16 million sweet suckers A DAY.
Over the years, lollipops have also evolved from simple, sweet little treats to much more. For example, lollipops can act as a very efficient delivery system for children's medicine, especially for children who have problems swallowing pills.
Beyond sugary-sweet and medicinal, there are also alcohol-based lollipops available, including ones made from beer, merlot, and chardonnay...which, I guess, shows that lollipops can be also used as an efficient delivery system for "adult" medicine as well.
