The University of Colorado at Boulder, UC-Colorado Springs and the Flatirons Consortium are currently unavailable in Prospector. The FLC, which includes Boulder, Broomfield, Lafayette, Longmont, Louisville and Loveland will be out of Prospector through 2021. CU-Boulder and UCCS have not indicated when they will return to Prospector. Please note that items for these libraries have been mapped to a non-requestable status of "local use only." They have also been removed from the Prospector Request Form.

We are slowly restoring libraries in Prospector after several months of inactivity due to the Covid-19 pandemic. During this time, only patrons from those libraries that are fully restored in the system will be able to borrow and lend items through Prospector. It is likely this list will change weekly, so be sure to check this site and your home library page to find out the current status of your home library.

Libraries that plan to reactivated in Prospector on July 7th

Lending and borrowing of physical items through Prospector is still unavailable. Even though some libraries have opened and others are offering curbside delivery, we can't restore Prospector until the statewide courier has resumed. Most libraries are still waiting for courier services to restart. We will provide further updates as we have more information. In the meantime, some libraries have allowed patrons to borrow e-resources including streaming videos.

Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic most libraries in Colorado are closed and the statewide courier is currently shutdown. As a result, we have turned off borrowing and lending through Prospector for all physical items. Some libraries still allow requesting of e-resources, which mainly includes Springer and Elsevier ebooks and streaming videos from Swank and Films on Demand. In those cases we have restored borrowing privileges for electronic resources only.

Due to the large number of libraries that have closed during the pandemic, we have temporarily shutdown Prospector. You can still view resources in the catalog, but you won't be able to place requests on items in Prospector, or in our partner catalog MOBIUS. We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

Sincerely

CO Alliance of Research Libraries

The following libraries are only partially available or not at all available through Prospector due to the coronavirus.

Dear Prospector users:

We have developed contingency plans with the expansion of the Covid-19 pandemic in light of Prospector.

The system migration is complete and Prospector is up and running once again. Please let us know if you encounter any troubles while using Prospector.

Prospector will be unavailable on Monday, February 3rd while we migrate the Prospector system to new servers. The system migration will start at 9am and should be done by the end of the day. Thanks for your patience while we migrate Prospector to our new servers.

We are excited to announce a new one year pilot project to lend streaming video resources through Prospector to Colorado and Wyoming library card holders.
