Turnitin Scheduled Maintenance: May 2, 2020, 11 AM – 3 PM
On May 2, 2020, Turnitin will require an emergency maintenance window from 11 AM – 3 PM EDT as a preemptive measure to avoid rescheduled maintenance work. During this time, users may experience problems submitting papers for any Turnitin assignments in Canvas courses. The maintenance should only take the first two hours of this window, however we ask that you plan for the full duration. Faculty, please use this Help Desk Request if you need assistance adjusting any Turnitin assignments that are due during the maintenance window.
