It looks like that the Library of Congress may have finally removed the z39.50.loc.gov:7090/Voyager entry point. The current list of LC Z39.50 database is at: http://www.loc.gov/z3950/lcserver.html Some searching using the Internet Archive indicated that this page stopped referring to z3950.loc.gov back in 2010. The current connection information appears to be: Domain name: lx2.loc.gov (140.147.249.67) Port: 210 Database name: LCDB (UTF-8 records) The other settings for LC should remain the same.

Thanks, Galen! The new LOC db info works fine now. Will have to look into why our other db's are acting up now ... Cheers, Cab

NYPL's target doesn't work for me either, and it actually was removed from the default list of targets installed with Koha back in August for not working or only working inconsistently.
