[Eril-l] Oxford English Dictionary access issue

Following up on access to the OED, Oxford just restored Georgetown's
access.
I was told there had been a "feed error" which has been corrected -- but
I'm not sure if this was just for us, or (hopefully) for everyone impacted.

Our OUP case is 7161272, if helpful.

Best,
John
