Hello,
We appear to have full access, BUT I find it really confusing that at the very center of the landing page is the following:
[cid:image002.png at 01D9B97D.83747BC0]

Because I know that we have a subscription, I just went ahead and tried out a word etc and proceeded, but I think this will throw most users.
Are others also seeing this right splat in the middle of the Webpage?
OUP: Can this be made NOT to show when one already has an active/current subscription?
Thanks for considering.

Thanks OUP.
Cornell University Library has partial access to the new platform.  Right now, the word search works fine, but clicking on the other tabs (meaning, etymology, pronunciation, etc) points to a login screen.  Can I assume the lack of access is part of the 48-hour transition?
