WorldCat maintenance - July 10th

We have been informed by OCLC that several of their services, including the WorldCat online catalogue, will be down for scheduled maintenance between 6am and 11am British Summer Time, and there is a possibility that service will not be restored until 4pm.

The old library catalogue will not be affected by this maintenance. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause.

--Further details from OCLC--
On Sunday, July 10, 2011 there will be scheduled service downtime for several OCLC services(see list further below) from 1:00 am until at least 6:00 am and possibly as late as 11:00 a.m. U.S. Eastern time. This temporary service interruption is required so we can upgrade storage systems and capacity for all OCLC services.

This event is part of ongoing upgrades that OCLC undertakes in order to improve services for all member libraries. We are working to minimize outages in the future, and upgrades such as this will help us provide better, more robust services going forward. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes to your library.
