***UPDATE 18/4 – catalogue record links should be ok now. Multisearch hasn’t caught up yet – the first full text link will not work but there should be a second one that will.***
Kia ora koutou
On Friday 13th we updated our catalogue records for 111, 000 odd ebook titles in the Ebook Central – Academic Complete ANZ Edition database. Unfortunately the book URLs have come through missing our site details so clicking on them will result in a “Sorry, we’re not able to identify your institution. Please double-check your URL.” error message. We are in the process of updating all the links in Horizon/Library Catalogue (should be done in an hour or two) and this should result in updates to Multisearch (might take a day or so for change to apply).
In the meantime, if you come across people having trouble accessing the books there are 2 ways around this:
- Use the EbookCentral database link – https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/canterbury/home.action – then search for the book in there.
- Edit the catalogue URL – replace the exlsite part of the URL with canterbury. e.g. http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/exlsite/detail.action?docID=1531174
becomes:
http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/canterbury/detail.action?docID=1531174
