WORK AT WILLIAMS

The demolition at Williams is off to an amazing start! The building has been
almost completely stripped down to the bare bones in preparation to be rebuilt
soon. The flooring has been removed, as well as the bathroom fixtures, and even
some sections of the ceiling. The photos speak for themselves. Check out the
work that has been done so far. We can’t wait to welcome everyone to the new and
improved Williams Library.

CALS is committed to providing open and transparent communication to those we
serve.
 
CALS recently observed unexpected activity within our network that disrupted our
internet and phone service. Upon learning of the activity, we responded quickly
to confirm the security of our systems and to work toward restoring full
functionality to our systems as soon as possible. Specifically, we took steps to
ensure that all connected systems remain offline while our investigation
proceeds and are utilizing workaround procedures during the downtime to enable
business efforts to continue.
 
We are working with third-party computer specialists to investigate the source
of this activity and to confirm any impact on our systems. Our investigation
into the activity causing the network disruption is ongoing. We currently are
unaware of any data compromised during this network disruption event.
 
During this downtime, materials are available for check-out, and digital
services, such as OverDrive/Libby, Kanopy, and hoopla, can be accessed when not
using the CALS network. We’re also using hotspots to offer limited services and
will adjust overdue fines as needed once service has been restored. If you are
unable to access our resources online or receive a message that your card has
expired, please contact us or visit the closest branch for assistance.
 
We appreciate your patience and understanding and apologize for any
inconvenience. Please contact us at askcals@cals.org for assistance.
