Dear List member,
A severe storm on the US East Coast has left over 2 million homes and businesses without power including the Bowker head office in New Providence. This is affecting a number of Bowker services including:
* Books in Print 2.0
* Bowkerlink
* Syndetic Solutions
* Library Thing for Libraries (Syndetic Solutions content)
* RCL
* BBAS
* Data services: image server, DOD, BMS, API.
The staff at Bowker are currently working to restore services using generator power and hope to have some power restored by close of business Monday, 31 October, however, they predict access may be initially patchy. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you or your customers and appreciate your patience. We will keep you informed of progress and if you have any questions please contact our UK office on [log in to unmask] or +44 (0)20 7832 1770.
Best wishes,
Darren
