In the EBSCOhost databases MedLine & CINAHL, the Search History now automatically appears above your search results.
If you want to turn this feature off at some point, just click on “Search History” (just to the right of “Basic Search” & “Advanced Search”).
For other EBSCOhost databases, if you want Search History to appear, click on the words “Search History” after you do your search.
*UPDATE* Limit raised to 100 articles per session
Due to excessive downloading (in one session someone downloaded over 14,000 articles, per Factiva), our downloading ability has been reduced to one article at a time.
We are investigating.
This is a good opportunity to remind folks that access to a resource does not automatically mean “anything goes”. Almost all vendors have internal benchmarks that make allowances for reasonable use – usually what a person can reasonably read.
Stay tuned!
FIXED!! Sorry for the delay. PLEASE do the following:
Clear your Browser Cache & Cookies then try accessing the EBSCOhost database of your dreams again.
UPDATE – Sorry, still seems to be a problem for EZproxy users. Doubtful there will be a resolution till Monday.
Access on campus seems to be working. Suggest visiting a branch this weekend if you can’t wait. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Recently, there have been some problems linking to Project Muse eBooks. Last month, some records were added to the Catalogue for ebooks not yet published. This should all be sorted by the end of August.
So, please report any ebook problems via out Help Form, but also be aware you may have to go to Project Muse’s site to search for the ebooks directly AND that some are not there (as they aren’t even published yet).
Sorry for the temporary confusion.
