No access to ScienceDirect

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
