POS move too, the library is one of the best parts of the city, obviously the tech department is a bit underfunded lol

Oh no the hackers will be aware of the book I did not return in 1991. The jig is up.

I think it's more that they encrypted the databases underlying system services, because the library cannot even run their website which lets you log in and see your holds/checkouts etc. It's been that way for a week, so presumably they don't have a good backup system or the backup system also got fucked somehow
