Recent Enhancements, News, and Activities
- Work is in‐progress and on track to migrate Merritt’s underlying technical infrastructure from physical servers to Virtual Machines (VM). (All UCOP services are moving to VMs.) We expect this work to be completed in June 2013.

- migrating collections from the legacy Digital Preservation Repository (DPR) to Merritt
