Catalog, check for full text links, other OCLC services down Sat Aug 5-Sun Aug 6

This is a reminder from OCLC, the company that supplies our library catalog/red search box, the journal list, and "check for full text" links that lead to article full text.

These systems will be down late Sat Aug 5 to early Sun Aug 6. 

Thank you for your patience!

Message:

As part of ongoing work to maintain and advance our systems, we will perform a disaster recovery exercise on 5-6 August that will require system downtime.

This work will be done in our U.S. data center and will impact all OCLC services. It will not impact independent European-based library management systems.

While we schedule maintenance on dates and times to minimize service disruption, we recognize that this work will impact users. We apologize for any disruption this may cause.

System Downtime Window:

United States Data Center: Saturday, 5 August 2017, 23:00 EDT–Sunday, 6 August 2017, 08:00 EDT (Eastern Daylight Time UTC -4)
