Issue is now fixed. April 30, 2024
Our authentication service, OpenAthens, is currently seeing issues with ScienceDirect. A lot of users are being blocked access.
Seems to be impacting multiple institutions. We are investigating!
A couple workarounds that seem to work:
- From the ScienceDirect page, if you click the Orange Institutional Icon and search for University of British Columbia Library, you can login there for access
- Can copy and paste this redirector text in front of the URL/website address and login via UBC: https://proxy.openathens.net/login?qurl=
- Open a Incognito/Private Browser window and access ScienceDirect via UBC Library there
