We are currently experiencing problems with the MetaLib upgrade which affects normal access to the article databases. While the problem is addressed, on-campus users can access the article databases through Alternative Access to Database Lists. If you are off campus, please IM a librarian during business hours for a link to the database you would like to access.

We hope to have this resolved soon and apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any questions please Ask A Librarian.

Normal access to the Ovid databases has been restored.

We thank you for your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.

While we continue to experience problems with normal access to Ovid databases, there is an alternate way for on-campus users to successfully access them.

The Alternative Access to Database Lists will provide entry to Ovid databases such as: CINAHL, ERIC, Essential Nursing, Health and Psychosocial Instruments, MEDLINE, Philosopher’s Index and PsycARTICLES.

The link to this list can also be found on the University Libraries home page, underneath “Find Databases”.

If you have any questions please Ask a Librarian.

We are currently experiencing problems with databases provided by Ovid Technologies. This includes: ERIC, Essential Nursing, Health and Psychosocial Instruments, MEDLINE, Philosopher’s Index and PsycARTICLES. We are in communication with WRLC and Ovid, and hope to have the problem resolved tomorrow.

We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.

After the past weekend’s migration, Wiley InterScience is back online.

However, they are reporting that there is some missing content that they are working to fix. A full list of missing content can be found on their website – scroll down to “What will happen to Blackwell journal content?” : Online Content Transition News

They are also reporting that OpenURL links for journals previously in Blackwell Synergy are undergoing maintenance. For the moment links should at least point to the appropriate journal page in Wiley InterScience, from where you can navigate to the appropriate article. Within a few days this should be corrected and the links should take you directly to the article.

If you have any questions please contact Ask a Librarian.
