In January 2023 the Co-op began migrating to MS365 for much of it's "office" functionality, things like email, calendaring and file sharing. As a board member, you will have collaborated with Co-op staff and other board members in the past using Sync for files, possibly Google docs, possibly zoom. Going forward all of these will be phased out in favour of using this new MS365 environment. The instructions below describe what will happen to get you started in this new environment.

You will get an email invitation sent to the email address you regularly use in correspondence with the board/Co-op executive director. This invitation will be to join the BC Libraries Cooperative MS365 instance. Your own institution may well already use MS365. Or it may not. Either is fine, it just means there may be slightly different patterns to access the server, based on whether Microsoft thinks your email address is already associated with an existing MS365 account.
