Microsoft has announced that Delve will be retired on 16 December 2024. This means you won’t be able to access Delve’s web features after this date.
What is changing
As a result of this change, it will no longer be possible to update office locations or phone numbers on the contact cards in Delve. As a result, this information should be considered out of date and potentially unreliable.

- Use Microsoft People Search: https://www.microsoft365.com/search/people
- Contact Information: You can contact colleagues directly via Microsoft Teams to find out their location or phone number, or view their staff profile on the University website if they have one.
- Document Search: Use SharePoint or OneDrive to search for and access documents.
