Devereaux Online

South Dakota Library Network (SDLN) will be moving to Aleph Version 20.1 beginning Friday 9 July 2010. We plan to be operational by the morning of Sunday 11 July. The server will be unavailable for live transactions from: Start- Friday 9 July 2010 at 6 a.m. MT End- Sunday 11 July 2010 at 9 a.m. MT For users this should have minimal impact. You will still be able to search the catalog and all of the databases. You will not be able to place holds on SDLN (please send requests to the Devereaux Delivers link instead.) You will not be able to place ILL requests using SDLN, but Devereaux Delivers or Worldcat will allow you to place ILL requests. If you need to renew items or have questions, please contact library staff.
