<Title>Known Issue: Bb Course Auto Enrollment  (RESOLVED)</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">The auto enrollment script that takes students who are officially enrolled in SA and places them into the corresponding Blackboard course shell stopped working on Thursday, Jan. 13.  It was restarted as of 12 pm, Tuesday, Jan. 25.
    
    Typically the Blackboard servers receive students enrollment data from the SA system multiple times daily; in this instance the data feeds were no longer being sent from SA to Blackboard.  DoIT staff have identified the issue and are working on the creation of business processes to ensure that this does not happen in the future.</div>

<Title>Update and Tips on Blackboard Faculty Support</Title>

    <div class="html-content">As I <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/blogs/oit-news/archives/2010/08/doit_announces_2.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">announced this past summer</a>, DoIT is no longer using Presidium Learning for Blackboard faculty support (it is intended only for 24/7 support of students). Instead, DoIT's <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/oit" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Help Desk</a> and <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/oit/itnm" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Instructional Technology &amp; New Media</a> (ITNM) unit are providing basic and advanced Blackboard faculty support, respectively. After consulting the <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/blackboard/help" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Blackboard Help</a> site, the best way to reach both groups is to submit an RT (<a href="http://rt.umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Request Tracker</a>) "ticket" by logging into <a href="http://rt.umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://rt.umbc.edu</a> or using the <a href="https://my.umbc.edu/help" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">myUMBC "help" link</a>.

<Title>Known Issue: Instructors Can't Import Bb Course Over 250MB</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">DoIT has confirmed a known issue that affects faculty trying to <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/oit/newmedia/blackboard/help/Export.htm" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">export</a> an old Blackboard course and <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/oit/newmedia/blackboard/help/Import.htm" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">import</a> it into a new, empty shell: 
    
    The export works fine, but if the resulting file is larger than 250 MB, faculty cannot import it. The process will return a "time out" error message.
    
    Other schools running version 9.1 have reported this issue, but until Blackboard releases a fix and we have tested it, the work around is for faculty to submit an <a href="http://rt.umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">RT Ticket</a> with a copy of the error message in the body of the ticket requesting that DoIT import the old course.</div>

<Title>Database Trial:  Oxford Bibliographies Online (renewed)</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>UMBC's trial access to <strong><a href="http://www.oxfordbibliographiesonline.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Oxford Bibliographies Online</a></strong> has been renewed.  The trial runs through February 21, 2011.</p>
    
    <p>Oxford Bibliographies Online (OBO) is a library of disciplined-based subject modules. In each subject module, leading scholars have produced a literary guide to the most important and significant sources in an area of study they know best. The guides feature a selective list of bibliographic citations supported by direct recommendations about which sources to consult. Each topic has a unique editorial commentary to show how the cited sources are interrelated. The citations promote discoverability as they link out to the sources via your library collection or through Google books and more.</p>
