Computer Network Restored At CoCo Libraries
The Contra Costa County Library network was the target of a cyber attack in early January.
CONTRA COSTA COUNTY — Key services at more than two dozen libraries in Contra Costa County are working again after they were shuttered by a network outage this week, library officials said Saturday.
The outage was the result of ongoing work to secure the Contra Costa County Library network, which was the target of a Jan. 3 cyber attack.
"We know this recovery has been frustrating," said County Librarian Melinda Cervantes. "We appreciate how understanding everyone has been and want to reassure library users that we have made restoring services to the public the first priority."
