Databases and security certificate errors

The Ezproxy security certificate has expired. Some databases (e.g. Lexis) will create an error message in the web browser. While this is not new, the message will be different (relating to expired certificates rather than to mis-matched certificates). Users will still be able to get to the content but will have to click on the appropriate links. For instance, in I.E. there will be an unblock bar across the top which allows content to be unblocked. For Lexis this will need to be done twice.

We asked ICTS to renew the certificate over a week ago but, as with a number of other jobs, it hasn’t happened. I am following up with them, but haven’t yet been able to get hold of the person I want.
