*UPDATE*

Work is continuing on this site and it will remain out of service throughout September. 11/09/2012

Please be aware of forthcoming maintenance on the Guardian and Observer Digital Archive site:

Guardian and Observer Digital Archive (GODA) necessary maintenance

I am writing to inform you that we will be performing necessary maintenance to the GODA servers from 25th July 2012.  

The maintenance is scheduled to run through the whole of August meaning that there will be little or no access to this resource.

Accordingly, we’d like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.

Please circulate this notice to staff at your earliest convenience. The home page will be replaced with "general public" contact details should customers require further information, but I’ve listed below contact details specifically set up for schools to use for convenience reasons:

goda@guardian.co.uk (please clearly mark the subject header of your email with the word “GODA”)

If you have any questions, please email goda@guardian.co.uk.

Kind regards,

Lisa Spiller
on behalf of GODA
