This was caused by a power outage in the backup power central for the entire central incoming network. Thus, the entire network went offline, and the door locks along with those. This is of course entirely unacceptable, and we have immediately started work to prevent this from happening again. Everything should now be back online, and everything should work as normal. If it doesn't, please get in touch with me.

Initially the electronic door locks didn't work due to the nodes not being connected to the UPS, that was immediately corrected and such an outage should not occur again. Furthermore the deionized water supply was damaged and is in need of repairs.

The Albano campus is approaching completion and will be officially inaugurated in September. The Albano river is flowing, and green areas are emerging. We look forward to a lively campus environment filled with more students and a mix of science areas. The long-planned skywalk connection between the main building and Hus 3 is finally in place. The new colloquium reception and the new information monitor in the rotunda have been very successful. The roof renovation on the C-block is ongoing and will continue during summer. Unfortunately drilling noise disturbance is expected. The work plan has been distributed separately so office work hours can be planned accordingly. There are also several planned developments. A new AlbaNova web is coming soon. Navigation terminals will be installed in the main entrances and will replace the discontinued visitor reception office. The server hall renovation is about to start with installation of a new cooling system. There will be a name change of the The Svedberg lecture hall to Lise Meitner. The entrance area to the skywalk will be decorated. The Nobel portrait collection will be replaced by astronomical pictures and digital displays with science presentations. The goods reception will be open as usual throughout the summer, as will the service office. If you experience building related issues contact service at albanova.se Finally, AlbaNova is a fruitful collaboration project between SU and KTH and it is up to us all to contribute to developing our joint scientific environment. Suggestions, questions and good ideas are welcome. Have a great summer! Best wishes Mats Wallin AlbaNova director -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
