Signals Notebook Individual Edition and ChemDraw Cloud (both of which NYU Libraries previously licensed and distributed through 12/31/2024) will experience "End of Life" on March 1st, 2025. After March 1st, 2025, access to these accounts and data stored within the platform will no longer be available. All data will be deleted and unrecoverable. 

If you want to migrate your data to the Signals Notebook Standard, you will need to export your experiments as a "notebook" file using these instructions: "How to transfer experiments from Signals Notebook Individual Edition to Signals Notebook Standard" Then, submit the Signals ELN and ChemDraw Request Form to request an account for the new site license. When your new account is created, you'll be able to import the files using last page of the instructions above. 

It is recommended that users also backup and export all data stored in the application to avoid data loss. If you want to download your data as a backup, follow these instructions: "How to export Notebooks to zip"

If you do not wish to keep your data, or you did not previously sign up for Signals ELN or ChemDraw, you can simply submit the new Signals ELN and ChemDraw Request Form to request an account for the new site license.
