[Heidi Card]

Hi Mandi & Kathleen,

I’m having the same issue – I emailed Springer and called (which was not helpful). Please keep us posted if you hear anything.


Thanks,

Heidi

Hi Mandi,

Yes, we just got a report of the same problem. It looks like we'll have access as normal but, when trying to access content we've purchased, we're being asked for payment.

Hi all!

It appears that Springer has revoked all of our access at some level – if I run a search on SpringerLink and exclude preview-only content I am getting the expected results, but if I go to the article, the “Download PDF” button at the top right is missing, and below the abstract I see the message “This is a preview of subscription content, log in to check access.” An article that I was able to access last week is now inaccessible. This is unacceptable at any time, but is especially distressing at the beginning of September.

Is anyone else seeing this as well?

Thanks!
Mandi
