WebBoard Discontinuation Notice

This notice serves as a reminder of the discontinuation of the WebBoard system. Be advised that no new WebBoards will be created for Fall 2008, nor will new members be added to existing boards.

Also, WebBoard will no longer be available after December 19, 2008. This means that before that date all messages and files that you wish to preserve from WebBoard must be saved on your computer. Summer provides a good opportunity to take a look through your past WebBoards and begin saving any materials you need, if you have not already.

Remember that Academic Computing and the Help Desk are available all summer to assist with this transition process. If you would like instructions for backing up your files from WebBoard, please contact the Help Desk online or x2460. If you are still currently using WebBoard and would like to be introduced to the features within MySLC, please contact Emily Sharp at esharp@slc.edu or x2464 to set up an appointment.

We will be sending reminders to all faculty and staff periodically as the December date approaches.
