Internet Explorer to be upgraded Monday night

‘Internet Explorer 10 is being installed on all Library Staff PCs with the exception of the ELM team. The IE10 package will be set to run on Monday beginning at 5:00PM when users log out.’

What this means in practice, is that come Tuesday morning, you will be running Internet Explorer 10. We have a number of library staff already using it and haven’t seen any issues.

Normally we ask you to shut down your PCs when you go home. However, it will speed up the installation if, on Monday, you log-off, but leave the PC running. If you don’t it doesn’t matter – it may just be a bit sluggish on Tuesday morning as it downloads and installs the new software.

  1. Please report any issues with IE10 to Library Eservices as we have agreed to keep a log of these for IT. However we have also agreed we will not go back to IE8 if there are any problems. Coral and I have agreed that the benefits such as EBL working better and ability to edit LibGuides to name a couple outweigh any other issues that may arise. Student workrooms use IE10, but most others in the university will remain on IE8. Cheers Anne
