Blackboard has scheduled a system update and feature release beginning Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 4:00 a.m. EDT and continuing through Friday, October 16, 2026, at 4:00 a.m. EDT.
During this maintenance window, users may experience intermittent service interruptions, reduced performance, or temporary unavailability of Blackboard services. While Blackboard is not expected to be unavailable for the entire 24-hour period, access may be affected at various times as updates are deployed.
To avoid potential issues, please submit assignments, discussion posts, and any other coursework before the maintenance window begins whenever possible. We also recommend downloading or reviewing any course materials you may need during that time.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as Blackboard implements these system enhancements and improvements.
Good morning,
The integration issue between Anthology and Blackboard has been resolved, and all active students have now been enrolled in their October Term courses.
If you were impacted by this issue, your instructors have been asked to provide additional time to complete Week 1 assignments.
If you are still unable to see or access one of your courses in Blackboard, please email Blackboard@salemu.edu so our team can assist you directly.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we worked to resolve this issue.
Thank you!
