we know a lot of people depend on our
0:01
services each and every day after being
0:04
closed for 3 days due to a cyber
0:06
security attack Calgary's public
0:08
libraries will be reopening their doors
0:10
to the public Wednesday morning the
0:13
libraries will be operating at regular
0:14
hours but services will be limited most
0:17
of our e- resources and our Digital
0:19
Library we don't have all those but
0:21
we're adding as many as we can so check
0:23
back and of course anything in location
0:25
that requires technology so printing uh
0:28
Wi-Fi um and our kind of digital
0:31
programs and whatnot 22 public libraries
0:35
across Calgary shut down over a cyber
0:38
security breach on Friday and while it's
0:40
still too early to tell what happened
0:43
the shutdown is being felt by people
0:45
across the city quite sad because I used
0:47
to started hear a lot because it's so
0:49
quiet and speak these days Wi-Fi um it's
0:53
uh it's important to uh to a lot of
0:55
people and uh you know sad sad to see
0:58
that uh maybe some some uh actors can
1:01
you know cause disruption to things but
1:03
uh no we'll we'll probably be here
1:04
tomorrow and check it out starting
1:06
Wednesday only meeting room study spaces
1:08
and book browsing will be available to
1:10
the public along with dropin programs
1:13
but the lack of Technical Services has
1:17
frustrated that's the whole reason why I
1:19
come here it's a 21st century I could
1:22
just download a eBook if I really need
1:23
to read something sometimes I don't I
1:26
don't really want to bring my computer
1:27
or something so it's just easier to use
1:29
use them here so for people who don't
1:32
have a cell phone or don't have Wi-Fi I
1:34
feel really bad for them but to Kosta
1:37
opening the library even if it's not
1:39
operating at full capacity is better
1:41
than remaining closed uh 20,000 people a
1:44
day visit our physical locations and we
1:46
have over 800,000 members um so we were
1:49
we felt really strongly about opening
1:51
with what services we can the
1:53
investigation on the Cyber attack is
1:54
still ongoing and kusta says the library
1:57
is working as quickly as they can to get
1:59
their digital Services back up and
2:01
running in the meantime she encourages
2:03
the public to stay up toate on services
2:05
available by visiting their website
