The IT Infrastructure & Client Services unit is currently working with the Endpoint Engineering group at Yale ITS to begin automatically deploying Office 2013 to select Library workstations.

To date, about 60% of YUL staff systems have been upgraded to Office 2013. Overnight Monday Dec. 1st into Tuesday Dec. 2nd, we will be deploying to another large group, essentially everyone else except the Arts Library, Drama Library, LSF and OHAM. Those areas will be addressed later in December.

Next week systems in CSSSI, Divinity, Medical Library, the Music Library and various collection areas in SML will receive their upgrades.

Additionally, you can further prepare for the upgrade by viewing the lynda.com online videos available to the Yale community by visiting http://www.yale.edu/lynda and watching Office 2013 New Features. We also encourage you to check out the Office 2013 Quick Start Guides.
