Some library services affected by system upgrade Friday, July 27 through Monday, July 30
The UF Libraries will upgrade the library automation system over an extended weekend, July 27-30, which requires the system to go down. The upgrade will correct prior problems and bugs in the software. It also will allow new functions to be added in the future, such as self-checkout, receipt printing and other enhancements.
To minimize inconveniences, users are encouraged to anticipate needs for the weekend by checking out items before Friday, July 27, and returning them after Monday, July 30.
While searching the catalog will be possible, the following services will be unavailable from Friday, July 27 through Monday, July 30.
- Placing a request for items to be retrieved from storage from the catalog (please use the alternate request form)
- Placing a request to recall or hold a checked out item
- Laptop checkout at Library West (library computer workstations are still available)
- New account creation or card activation, including computer workstation cards (please use CIRCA labs or the public library)
