Please be aware that the access indicators on the Emerald eJournals platform are not displaying against subscribed content (see screenshot for example). This will give the impression that we do not have access to content when in fact we do. When browsing a title, please click on your desired volume/issue, select the HTML or PDF option under desired content, and access will be granted. The Emerald Group are working with platform suppliers to resolve the issue. Upcoming maintenance on Emerald’s research platform, Emerald Insight, is scheduled to take place on Tuesday 26 September 2017 beginning at 04:00 EST - lasting for up to 12 hours. During this time, the site will be placed into ‘read-only’ mode, making the following functionality unavailable for the duration of the upgrade:
Should you access the website during this time, you will receive a notification that the site functionality is temporary unavailable within your browser. Please note that this may also affect some functionality on emeraldpublishing.com. There is a known issue with the “Online access” link in Infokat Discovery (Primo). Clicking on “Online access” automatically navigates to the first provider of the resource in the “View It” menu, which is sorted alphabetically. Please note that in many cases the first provider may not host the most current access. Therefore, the “Online access” link may not direct you to the most appropriate provider for your requested item. This is an InfoKat Discovery (Primo) Interface issue, and our service provider is aware of the problem. Our Systems Librarian is in close contact with the service provider and they are working to resolve this issue. In the meantime, please click on the TITLE of the desired resource from your InfoKat search results to pull up the full Infokat record. Then click on a provider from the "View It" section of the record display and navigate to the source with the most appropriate coverage for your needs. See the example below using a search for current content from the journal Abacus: We hope to have this issue resolved soon and apologize for the inconvenience.
UK Libraries currently has access to two versions of L’Annee Philologique, a key bibliography for classical studies.
We have been acquiring this version directly from the original publisher, Société Internationale de Bibliographie Classique. The links to articles may not work in this version because of an updating problem. If you are using this version, consider using the Brepols version below. The new Brepols version is now available and has our current linking information for access to full text. Any comments would be appreciated and may be directed to [email protected] Both versions are included in the databases list on the Libraries’ website. Brepols will be the sole online database for this resource by January 2018, if not sooner. No official turn-off dates have been announced, but both the version from the Société Internationale de Bibliographie Classique and EBSCOhost will be gone by the end of the December 2017. Ovid has announced infrastructure updates and resulting downtimes for the Ovid platform and Ovid Products. Please, see below for details about the affected products/components and expected downtime.
The following tools will experience a downtime of up to 2 hours, beginning Thursday, 8/24, at 11 AM EDT.
As always, please contact Customer Support with any questions or concerns by sending an email to [email protected]. Hi everyone,
As of September 30th, LexisNexis Academic will be retired from UK Libraries. It’s replacement, Nexis Uni, is currently up-and-running in the database listing. We encourage everyone to check it out! Nexis Uni is a fully reimagined version of L-N Academic that offers “a superior research experience for students.” More from LexisNexis: “Nexis Uni features more than 15,000 news, business and legal sources from LexisNexis—including U.S. Supreme Court decisions dating back to 1790—with an intuitive interface that offers quick discovery across all content types, personalization features such as Alerts and saved searches and a collaborative workspace with shared folders and annotated documents.” For more information, including FAQs, brochures, and promotion materials, please see the Nexis Uni support page or register for an upcoming "Nexis Uni 101" webinar.

The documents will be downloaded into a zip file on your computer. This release also includes a major infrastructure upgrade that provides improved performance and lays the foundation to support the development of more robust features to further enhance the user experience in the future as well as provide enhanced security overall.
