No CommentsTaylor & Francis Journals Down – 20_Oct_2021
Posted on October 25, 2021 @8:26 am by madgett
RESOLVED
Access to the Taylor & Francis journals is down.
NOTE : We have been advised that a fix is being tested Friday with an intention to release it on Monday 25th October.
It has been reported.
Workaround => if you follow a link through to an article, get the “Select your Institution” error BUT you see “Access Provided by the University of British Columbia” at the top of the page, click on “Home” then re-search the article’s DOI or Title on the T&F site itself.
Their ebook site is still working.

CNKI Databases (Journals, Thesis, etc.) – No Downloading (Sept.2021)
Posted on December 15, 2021 @8:47 am by madgett
Latest Update : Another day, another update 🙂
CNKI is now downloading PDFs again. Resource Page here:
If linking by title or article level, titles using the Qingdao platform https:chn.oversea.cnki.net are working better than titles using the California platform https:global.cnki.net .
UPDATE – Nov. 15th: Currently, the California server (https://go.openathens.net/redirector/ubc.ca?url=http://global.cnki.net) seems to be working and PDFs can be downloaded, but the Qingdao server (https://go.openathens.net/redirector/ubc.ca?url=http://oversea.cnki.net/) has intermittent errors. Qingdao can still be used for searching & reading online, but no PDF downloads.
The CNKI Databases, covering Chinese journals, theses, dissertations and more, is currently not allowing downloads.
We are working on a solution.
Stay Tuned!
