Systems Manager, Sam Tyler, will be celebrating with a bevy in a branded Library travel mug once the new Library systems server is installed in August.

This summer the Library moves its Library Management System to a new server in order to gain a more robust system and less down time. However, please be aware that during our change-over week, 15-19 August, there may be some disruption to Library services.

If you plan to use the Library during this week, either in person or online, please check our University Library News blog nearer the time to see how the server upgrade could affect you. The Library will remain open throughout, as will most of our systems’ functionality.

We hope that you have a great summer and are looking forward to the new server as much as we are!
