Access is not working for De Gruyter eBooks. Users are not recognized as coming from UBC on the De Gruyter and will see “Requires Authentication”

No Comments“Sorry Not Found” errors with Bloomsbury, DeGruyter, and John Benjamins eBooks
Posted on January 10, 2024 @8:55 am by ryan regier
We are seeing some ongoing issues with some eBooks from Bloomsbury, DeGruyter, and John Benjamins giving ‘Sorry not found’ errors from our Library Search.
These are being caused by metadata links that need to be manual fixed, so the problem may take some time to fully resolve.
As a workaround, go to the Resource Page for the Publisher and then search the book title on the Publisher website:
- Bloomsbury – https://resources.library.ubc.ca/page.php?id=2637
- DeGruyter – https://resources.library.ubc.ca/page.php?s&id=2459
- John Benjamins – https://resources.library.ubc.ca/page.php?id=2699
Also feel free to just contact us here and we will provide a direct working link to the eBook
