News from the Shaw-Leslie Library

Ebook Central is moving from its current server to Amazon Web Services (AWS) — a change that will help us continue to provide the best user and customer experience possible.

The move to AWS will take place on June 26 and will require Ebook Central to be offline from 2:00pm – 10:00pm UTC. Please note this updated time. From 2:00pm – 10:00pm UTC, users will not have access to holdings in Ebook Central.

In light of the changes happening in our community and around the world, two new resource guides have been created to help disseminate important information in a timely manner.
