On Sunday, January 17th at 5am we will be performing maintenance to our UPS system in the server room. Due to the nature of this particular maintenance we will have to shut down all servers until the work is complete. We plan to be back online by 5pm that day. All resources including the library websites, course reserves, interlibrary loan, database sites etc. will be unavailable during this outage.
