Turnitin downtime 15 August 2015

We have had the following communications from Turnitin regarding global maintenance of their service:

Turnitin services will be mostly unavailable during a scheduled maintenance period on Saturday, August 15, 2015 from 7 AM to 11 AM U.S. Pacific Time (see local time: http://go.turnitin.com/e/45292/o5gahfa/3vbcwk/441055800).

An announcement will appear to users within Turnitin in advance of when the system will be unavailable for the scheduled maintenance. The  maintenance will affect Turnitin and TurnitinUK users, as well as those using a Learning Management System.

Instructors are encouraged to modify assignment due dates either before or at least several hours after the scheduled maintenance window.

This will mean Turnitin will be unavailable for UCL users (whether via Moodle or direct) on 15th August from 15:00 to 19:00 BST.  Please ensure you do not have any deadlines scheduled during this period.
