Open Athens “self-discovery” access

***update 1/2/22 – staff access is back – Romy***

Kia ora koutou

As we work on getting Open Athens ready for a possible go live of 15th Feb, Digital Services (a.k.a. IT) are making some changes to the access groups (these control who is allowed to log in to Microsoft Open Athens authentication part of Open Athens).  As they switch over you may get staff members that have successfully been using the “access via your institution” self-discovery access to resources like SciVal now getting access denied Microsoft error pages.

This should be sorted soon – in the meantime please direct affected users to the links on database pages etc. that go through ezproxy rather than Open Athens.

NB: access is still not open to any students but Digital Services are working on getting a solution for this in place.

Ngā mihi,

Romy
