UPDATE: The Fall 2014 course site is back online after less than 2 hours of maintenance.

The legacy UMBC Blackboard site, which currently hosts Fall 2014 courses until they are migrated to our new Blackboard site, will be offline for emergency maintenance from 12-5 pm EST on Wednesday, January 7, 2015. Communities and organizations will also be unavailable during this downtime.

This maintenance period should allow faculty to export older courses from the UMBC Blackboard site without experiencing the known issue with invalid files and import the course content to the new Blackboard site for Spring 2015.

This downtime will not affect Winter 2015 courses as those are hosted on the new Blackboard site now. Faculty, staff & students may access Winter 2015 courses through one of these paths:

Log into myUMBC and select Blackboard »

Thank you for your patience.
