A Catalog unit, having been dormant for 100,000 years after the firing of the Halo Array, resumed its duties on [[2552#November|November 7, 2552]], after receiving and denying a control authorization supposedly sent by the Librarian. After his awakening in [[2557#July|July 2557]], the Ur-Didact repeatedly contacted Catalog and asked to take control of the ecumene; Catalog rejected these requests. This prompted Catalog to resume its investigative protocols. Over the course of the investigation, Catalog accessed a number of UNSC and ONI data networks to gain information about the current state of the galaxy.<ref>[https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2963929_Catalog-Interaction.aspx#post2963929 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Catalog Interaction'']</ref> | A Catalog unit, having been dormant for 100,000 years after the firing of the Halo Array, resumed its duties on [[2552#November|November 7, 2552]], after receiving and denying a control authorization supposedly sent by the Librarian.
