Issues with Library Search or e-resources will be posted here as we find out about them - if you are experiencing a problem which is not mentioned here please contact us.
eJournal links from the Library catalogue not working
Due to a technical issue eJournal records from Classic Catalogue are not linking correctly.
Some eJournal links on Classic Catalogue are not directing users correctly as the generated URLs will not authenticate through to Warwick login. In some cases the link will not direct people to the eJournal and in other case users will need to log in to access the material.
Access is still possible through other routes. A suggested alternative route is to access journal titles through the eJournal A-Z. Please search for the eJournal title from the eJournal A-Z and access the material from that route.
Articles searches are not affected and should still work on Library Search.
We are very sorry for any frustration caused and we are working on a solution to the problem. Please contact us if you require any further support or if you are having problems accessing a particular eJournal.
Update - 25/05/2023 - We are sorry that this issue is taking so long to correct. We are working with our supplier and hope to have a solution soon.
