Hi,

This is the latest information from OUP about their https access problems.

As you know, OUP recently moved all journal content onto https: web pages to provide more secure browsing access to OUP-hosted journals.  This change has resulted in problems with access to OUP content for some users.

We apologise for the inconvenience customers have experienced with access following the switchover. While we work to resolve these issues, we will dual host our journals on both the http and https versions of our platform, which should restore access immediately. Customers may need to clear their cache if they had experienced access issues previously. Any users who have made recent updates in line with advice from our Customer Services team should not be disrupted by this change.

If you continue to experience problems please contact the CDL Helpline.

Thanks,

Margery Tibbetts

Subject: CDLAlert: Oxford Journal access issues

Hi

Yesterday Oxford Journals online started using https instead of http. They are aware of the access problems being experienced by users and are working on fixing the problem but don’t have an ETA yet..

The recommended work around from OUP is “using the IE browser and manually adding an “s” (the extra security layer to the http) to access journals”

Users can also try the following in UC-eLinks:

Either click the "remove the frame" link at the very top of the page OR click “ucelinks menu” at the top and then click the “get full text from oxford” link.

From the non-framed Oxford page try change the URL from http to https.

Please share this information with your colleagues.

Thanks,
