[Michlib-l] MeL Minute - MeL/MeLCat Servers

[Borrelli, Eunice (MDE)]

Hello all,
~This week's MeL Minute is provided by Midwest Collaborative for Library Services - MCLS ~

The MeL/MeLCat server migration has begun! The migration does affect the MeL Databases.

1. Users directly searching the MeL Databases at http://mel.org/Databases will be verified that they are in Michigan based on the IP address of their workstation. If the IP isn't recognized as being in Michigan, patrons will NOT be able to use the optional remote login screen via driver's license or an account at a MeLCat library.

2. Libraries with direct URLs to the MeL Databases should be able to access the databases if their library IP is registered with the database vendor. If you need to register your library IP address, go to http://mcls.org/ipupdates

3.The MeL Discovery service (at http://search.mel.org<http://search.mel.org/> and on http://mel.org),<http://mel.org),/> and the "Search" buttons on the MeL Gateways have been temporarily removed.

                              We will let you know when everything is back up. If you have any questions, please contact meldatabaseshelp at mcls.org<mailto:meldatabaseshelp at mcls.org>

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?  Stay tuned for next week's MeL Minute available on many Michigan library listservs, email us at contact at mel.org<mailto:contact at mel.org> or visit mel.org<http://mel.org/>.
