Soon after I posted about the outage, ODW services & digital collection sites were restored on 15 April. That includes Our Ontario, VITA TOOLKIT, Community Newspapers and Government Documents back in service,
The outage was caused by a ransomware attack on 25 February. Around that time, Jess Posgate of ODW gave an online presentation that I’ve had time to forget. Unfortunately, there’s no up-to-date video on ODW on YouTube to refresh my memory.
What a huge relief…I was worried it was permanently gone. Heck of a job to rebuild. Still wondering when the British Library will be able to restore their digital images.
