Dear colleagues,

This is a notice that the B.C. Open Textbook Collection will be down for scheduled maintenance on the morning of Tuesday, December 14. Maintenance will begin at 6:00 a.m. PST and should be completed by 10:00 a.m. PST.

Pressbooks itself will not be affected, so you should be able to access the web versions of all BCcampus-hosted books in Pressbooks. If you usually access a Pressbooks web book through the open textbook collection, it may be helpful to bookmark the web version ahead of time. If you know anyone at your institution who may try to access the collection during this time, please alert them to the planned outage so that they may bookmark web books or download files in advance.

If you need access to a book file while the collection is down, email opentext@bccampus.c​a and someone will send you a copy. A notice on the collection will give the same instructions.

A reminder about the maintenance will be sent out on Monday, December 13, and we will send another message once the maintenance is completed on December 14.

Thank you,
