[Eril-l] PubMed setup for off-campus use?

[Diane Westerfield]

A little update, we had issues with OCLC EZProxy profiles (as everybody was trying to update them at once). The problem was resolved and we are getting correct linking from EZProxied new PubMed through EBSCO's link resolver. So our link looks like:

https://coloradocollege.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?otool=coloralib

We have at least one professor who is going to be directing students to use PubMed, so this is very helpful.

Thanks,

Thanks to folks who replied off list. I was missing the link, which I would have seen if I read the FAQ. The link is now appearing, though when you click on it you get an EBSCO login form. So it's off to EBSCO I go. This link plus your institution's abbreviated name in your NCBI account.

Hi all,

Here is another residential college-to-distance learning problem. Do you have PubMed set up for off-campus use with EZProxy? We are trying to get our link resolver (EBSCO's Full Text Finder) set up so students can get to our subscription resources.


*         I assume PubMed would need to be EZProxied(?)

*         Anybody have insight on the link resolver side? I have been unable to get our links to show up on PubMed in the past despite NCBI saying it should be working, and filling out a form on the EBSCO side.

*         Added wrinkle: two versions of PubMed, old and new

Our students can log into virtual machines that present a campus IP address. But when school gets into full swing, the VMs may not be able to handle the load.

Thanks,
