Posted on September 16, 2020September 21, 2020 by Sarah Andrews

If you are having trouble accessing library resources while using the Chrome browser off campus, please try using a different web browser.

Chrome is the most secure web browser, and some library resources do not yet comply with the latest changes.

You may receive “bad gateway” messages when trying to open articles, ebooks, or library databases.
You may have difficulty accessing PubMed, Web of Science or other tools.

If you still have difficulty accessing library resources, please contact us for help.

New PubMed | 10-min video introduction to changes by Iowa librarian

Posted on June 1, 2020June 22, 2020 by Sarah Andrews

Last week, the new interface of PubMed became the default and now the UI Link button displays in this version. Although the changes to how PubMed works are not substantial, the functionality is improved for those who access through a mobile device.

In addition, there have been features added to improve the user friendliness of this resource: cite tool to help format references in common citation styles, improved page navigation, and permalinks to records to facilitate sharing or saving.

To learn more about the changes, please view this 10-minute video created by Jennifer Deberg, User Services Librarian at Hardin Library.
