(Archive: 2016 SFX Test Migration information)
The local SFX instance holdings will be extracted during the Spring Break time period in March, when most libraries will be on break. Ex Libris recommends running SFX extracts during off-peak time periods so I’ve planned to extract local SFX holdings beginning the weekend of March 25th. If I’m unable to finish the exports that weekend, I will continue the exports the weekend of April 1st. Please do not make any changes to SFX KB during the extract weekends. Updates to the KB can continue on the following Monday after the extracts.

The CSU Serial Solutions/ProQuest Summon subscription will end in June 2016 and Primo Central and the SFX holdings will replace Summon.
March 23rd 23, 2016 Update: Extracts from the local SFX instances will begin March 26th and should be completed by April 3rd. I'm extracting the weekend of March 26th and April 2nd, leaving the weekend of April 9th open in case there are any issues with an extract and it needs to be run again. This should help us meet the April 15th deadline.
