For the past few weeks, we've been having trouble with full-text downloads from the EBSCO databases. These very important research instruments include : Catholic Periodical and Literature Index, New Testament Abstracts, Old Testament Abstracts, Academic Search Complete, and the Religion and Philosophy Collection.
The problem arose when people were using these programs off-campus and connecting to our network through the proxy server. It was possible to search for articles using these databases, but when you tried to download the full text as a PDF file, it would time out without ever finishing the download. Grrr!! But our tenacious IT people have figured out how to fix this, and the programs seem to be working properly now.
A similar problem arose recently with the Digital Karl Barth Library, and that also seems to be fixed. So, hooray! Three cheers for our IT problem-solvers!!!
