Hi all,

Unfortunately the problems with CAJ access reported to you on April 15 continue.  Here  is the latest information from the vendor:

East View's user name and password for the China Academic Journals database at http://www.global.cnki.net is not functioning properly, although access remains available to the China Core Newspapers Database.

We regret this unfortunate situation and are doing everything we can to restore subscriber access to CAJ. East View's server is nearly rebuilt and should be fully accessible Monday morning, April 28th.

This situation is complicated by the declared public health emergency in Beijing, where movement onto university campuses is currently restricted (TTOD is located on the campus of Tsinghua University).

Please share this information with your colleagues.
Thanks
Sherry

Subject: CDLAlert China Academic Journals databases are currently unavailable

China Academic Journal (CAJ databases) are currently unavailable due to technical difficulties. The vendor is working around the clock to solve this problem and will notify us as soon as we have information as to when the databases will be accessible again. The CAJ is part of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI)

From the vendor's website:

Currently the CNKI databases are unavailable due to serious technical difficulties beyond our control.

In order to continue to provide this valuable service we have coordinated with our Chinese partners to offer access to all current CNKI subscribers. We here at East View apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and are working to solve this problem in a prompt and timely manner.

Below you can find your temporary Username and Password which will allow you to access the databases that you have currently subscribed to. Please write this username and password down and click on the link below to be redirected to our Chinese partners’ website.

On the website, enter the username and password where specified and choose CAJ3.5 (journals) from the pull-down menu or CCND3.5 (newspapers), depending on which database you want to use.
