Athens Scheduled Maintenance - Sunday 13th April 2008

Hi Everyone,

We have received the following message from Athens about work being carried out this Sunday morning.

I don't believe this will cause us any problems, but it might be worth me publicising the direct link to MyAthens (https://auth.athensams.net/?ath_returl=%2Fmy%2F&ath_dspid=ATHENS.MY_BETA) in case some of you have just got www.athens.ac.uk bookmarked, and it appears this will be unavailable.

Thanks,

James.

Athens Maintenance 29/1/08 07:00-09:00

Hi Everyone,

We've just had this email about Athens maintenance which is due to be carried out on Tuesday 29/1/08. For the users this should only affect MyAthens. It shouldn't be a problem for those who are linking to a database from the eLibrary and using their Athens details to login.

Hope this is clear,

James.
