<br>
Thank you for your email. Yes, all users with a subscription see that text block on their screen even after logging in. I believe when it's clicked on it will go into detail about your active subscription. I have made note of your request though and will pass it along for the team meeting that is happening tomorrow regarding the new platform. <br>
<br>
Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>

<div>Hello,
<div>We appear to have full access, BUT I find it really confusing that at the very center of the landing page is the following:</div>
<div><img alt="image.png" height="268" src="cid:1896af070ee20260f201" width="428"></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Because I <u>know</u> 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.</div>
<div>Are others also seeing this right splat in the middle of the Webpage?</div>
<div>OUP: Can this be made NOT to show when one already has an active/current subscription?</div>
<div>Thanks for considering.</div>
<div>~ Sara</div>

<p>Thanks OUP.</p>
<p>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? </p>
