Reduced hours Friday

Between the Spring term and May term, the Morton Library will have slightly reduced hours.  On Friday evening we will close at 5:00 pm to give our Circulation staff a well-earned break.

Gremlins abated

I'm glad to report that our HVAC system is now back to normal, thanks to our friends at Physical Plant.  Yay Keith!!  So the building is comfortably cool again.

Also, the catalog should be operating normally.

Catalog down

Our Monday morning gremlins are at it again!  The Library catalog is offline right now ... Leland is working on the problem, which seems to be a server issue.

UPDATE : Leland has got the catalog online again, so you should be able to use it as usual.  Some other server functions are still impaired but they will not prevent use of the catalog.

Also, the air conditioning in the building has failed.  The fans are running and the lights are on, but it isn't cooling.  So, our friends at Physical Plant are working on that.  You can still come in here and study -- just wear shorts and a tee shirt!

We apologize for these problems and hope they will be resolved soon!

Brief catalog interruption

The Library catalog will be offline for a short interval this morning, for server maintenance.  We expect it to be restored by about 9:00 am today.

Extensive server maintenance work

Our systems librarian, Leland Deeds, will be performing extensive maintenance on our catalog server this weekend.   He is very graciously planning this work for the Easter weekend when most of us will be busy with other things and not needing to access our online catalog.

Please be aware that the Library catalog will be offline Friday night and Saturday night at least.  Because Leland is going to be doing some backup operations that we have not done before, we can't predict exactly how long this work is going to take.  So we can't be more specific about precisely which hours will involve catalog downtime.

If you have trouble accessing the Library catalog at any point this weekend, please assume that maintenance is still going on.  We intend to have everything back in operation well before we reopen on Monday, April 1st.
