Due to issues this morning with various network systems on campus, our EZproxy server that manages remote access to library resources (databases, e-journals, ebooks, streaming videos, etc.) is down. There is no remote access available right now.
Unfortunately, this problem also interferes with on campus access, as all database traffic is initially routed through our EZproxy server. If you need on- campus access to a database, you’ll want to remove the EZproxy prefix that appears at the start of the URLs.
For example, if you copy the URL from the link to ABI/Inform Global on our A-Z database list, you can see that it’s trying to go to:
https://remote.baruch.cuny.edu/login?url=https://www.proquest.com/abiglobal/advanced?accountid=8500
If you are on campus, just copy that URL into your browser and delete the portion at the start that has:
https://remote.baruch.cuny.edu/login?url=
That leaves you with a URL of that will actually work from computers on campus on our network:
https://www.proquest.com/abiglobal/advanced?accountid=8500
As soon as I get word of network services returning to normal, I’ll send out an update here.
