Network Maintenance Oct. 27 May Interrupt Library Services

Submitted by Camie on

Rescheduled network maintenance work may disrupt library services on Sunday, Oct. 27. 

The work performed by the UGA EITS Office may cause periodic outages in electronic systems and resources across campus and via online platforms, and this could interfere with accessing online library resources as well as activities at the Main Library, McBay Science Library, and Miller Learning Center.

Due to SSO needs, students, faculty, and staff may experience periods of inaccessibility for full-text articles and access to UGA Libraries databases and research materials, both on campus and off campus. 

For visitors to Libraries locations, wifi may be unavailable, which can impact services such as WEPA printing and internet access on laptops and computers. Outages may impact landline telephones and elevators, as well. 

Group study room occupancy sensors may be off-line, as well as the reservation system for zoom booths and self-checkout terminals. The MLC's tech lending desk will be closed that day, but students can check out laptops, chargers, calculators, and other available items at the Main and McBay libraries' service desks.
