SRDS recently changed the interface for their database that is unlike most others. When you try to connect, it looks like you’re unable to access the database, as the search box is not visible at first. The trick is that you now have to click the purple “Log In” button in the top right corner of the screen.
Once you do that, you are “logged in” even though you didn’t get prompted to type in any user name or password. The search screen is made visible in the right middle part of the interface after you’ve clicked the “Log In” button.
Please note that if you are off campus, you’ll still first see Baruch’s EZproxy login page (AKA, our “remote authentication” page) before you get to this quirky new SRDS landing page.
