Attaching Holdings To Bib Records Within Two Months

Please remember to attach your holdings to bib records imported by LINC Cataloging staff within two months after the records are imported and your materials are returned by delivery. Since LINC policy states that records that have been in LINC for more than two months with no holdings attached will be purged every six months, the records may no longer be available to you if you wait longer than the prescribed two-month  period, and we will have to catalog affected items a second time.

If you have any question contact either Vanessa Whippo or Pat Boze.

Downtime for LTLS Servers - Saturday August 9

Beginning at 6:00 a.m. this Saturday morning (8/9/08), all servers located at the LTLS headquarters building will be down for approximately 2 hours. This includes, but is not limited to, the Horizon Database Server, all LINCPac servers, LTNet email server, WebReporter server, RPA server, and the ESIP server. This downtime is to allow power to the computer room to be turned completely off while maintenance is performed on our Uninterruptable Power Supply.

We will post to the SystemStatus blog, (which automatically generates an email to those subscribed to the SystemStatus List Serve) when maintenance on the UPS is completed and power has been restored to the computer room.

Please do not attempt to connect to any servers until you have received official notification that the maintenance is complete, as power may be cycled on and off several times during the maintenance period for testing purposes.
