A set of data updates has just been uploaded to the Lutheran Service Builder automatic update service. Users will be asked to download these updates on their next restart of Builder if they are connected to the Internet.

These updates contain the Propers for Year B (moderately ahead of schedule), as well as additional content for Years A and C in the form of Scripture citations for the Introits, Graduals, and Verses that will be accessible in version 1.08 for inclusion in bulletins as subcaptions. Users may now search for Year B Propers and obtain working results.

At this time, the only resources not complete for Year B are the assigned Psalms. Users will note that Builder will simply automatically pull the Psalm text (without antiphon) from the ESV master text, and pointing will not be available until those Psalms have been entered and uploaded to the service.

A similar update to provide Scripture citation subcaptions for the One-Year Lectionary will be posted next week, in addition to a small update with a handful of content fixes to the hymnal material. (We are limiting the number of updates released at once in order to accommodate our customers using dial-up Internet connections.) More information will be posted as the updates are released.
