New SUNCAT z39.50 server hostname

The SUNCAT z39.50 targets are now available at z.suncat.ac.uk. You may want to change your z39.50 configuration to point to z.suncat.ac.uk rather than newcat.edina.ac.uk to ensure continual access throughout the downtime tomorrow. See 'Downloading facility of MARC Records' and 'Free z39.50 connection details' for full details on how to connect.
