Thanks to the ingenuity of folks on the EZproxy mailing list, a solution was found that fixes the off campus access problem we were having with the DSM-5 Library. I’ve applied that fix to the configuration file on our EZproxy server and tested that it works.

Off Campus Access Problems for DSM-5 Library
Some recent changes made by the vendor (American Psychiatric Association) on their end seem to be preventing us (and most other libraries using EZproxy) from connecting to the DSM-5 Library from off campus. On campus access remains unaffected.
I’ll update here as soon as the vendor and OCLC (the vendor for EZproxy) sort this out.
New Database: DSM-5 Library
We now have access to the DSM-5 Library. This database from the American Psychiatric Association provides the full text of the latest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a standard reference work in the mental health field, as well as a handful of other related reference works.
Links to this database can be found on the A-Z page and the psychology databases page.
