January 10, 2017 - Discovered today that Blackboard's users database was one of the resources we review before creating a new Saint Mary's user account.  As a SaaS client, we will no longer have access to that database.  Blackboard Support has offered to provide us a file of what is currently on our Blackboard but to have ongoing, we would need to pay for a new server.  I have recommended we just remove Blackboard as one of the systems we search.  All of the user ID come from Banner anyway so Blackboard does not have to be involved.  If there is ever a question about an account, I can check on the GUI.  We cannot automate it but for now, I think that is okay.
