Kia ora koutou
There is currently an issue with access to Cambridge Core. When trying to get to these resources the screen gets stuck at an error screen e.g. “Checking your browser before accessing Cambridge.org” . Cambridge is using a CloudFlare service that seems to be down at the moment and this is the reason for this error message. If the link to the resource is an ezproxied one (e.g. from our databases pages, catalogue or Multisearch/Google Scholar) the promised redirect does not happen and you get stuck at the error message screen. To get around this – if you are on campus you can access Cambridge via https://www.cambridge.org/core/ – you’ll still get the error but will eventually be redirected.
The issues have been reported by various libraries around the world and will hopefully be resolved soon. In the meantime we are working with Cambridge to get a workaround in place for our access.

Access looks to be OK this morning but please report any problems
