[Eril-l] [EXTERNAL] Re: Bloomsbury + DOI - dropped proxy string

Thu Feb 15 06:17:20 PST 2024

We were seeing this message with the existing stanza:

NO ACCESS TO CURRENT PRODUCT

Your account appears to be valid but it does not have access to this
database.

I sent a message to Bloomberg showing the OCLC stanza and asking if
there was a new stanza.

Bloomberg didn't send an updated stanza, but they fixed something from
their end.

This suggests there may be more than one problem happening.   Might be
worth touching base with their support team at:   databases at abc-clio.com
