Colleague Upgrade Slated for Feb 2 - 4
16 01 2007Colleague and ScotWeb will be unavailable from noon on Friday, February 2, until the morning of Monday, February 5. During this period, IT will be upgrading Colleague from software Release 17 to Release 18. It is necessary to perform this upgrade at this time because Release 18 is mandatory for the Colleague Advancement software that the College is in the process of implementing. Colleague Advancement is slated to enter production on July 1.
The changes in Release 18 are primarily technical and behind-the-scenes. Users should experience no substantive changes in the software’s behavior or appearance. On Monday morning it will be necessary for each Windows user to perform a simple procedure to update his or her client. Users will shortly be provided with the necessary instructions.
IT has been preparing for this important upgrade for a number of months, and folks in our client offices continue to test Release 18 to verify that it functions as required. We very much appreciate your patience as we take yet another critical step toward completing the OSCAR project. Please direct any questions that you might have about this upgrade to Marlene Brown at x2304 or mbrown@wooster.edu.
