Thank you both for testing and sharing what you've been seeing with De Gruyter access! I do have tickets open with them, and they have said that refreshing the browser should clear the error (as you experienced, Sara), but that hasn't worked for us. Sigh.

Hi everyone,<br>
I just wanted to send a quick note to say a huge thank you to all the libraries that have already signed up for the Lighthouse pilot program! We are thrilled by the response and are excited to get started with you.<br>
A quick housekeeping note for those who have joined: Please make sure to keep an eye on your junk or spam folders for emails coming from @libpages.com. Occasionally, our automated account setup emails get caught in the filters.<br>
For anyone who might have missed the original message, Lighthouse is a platform designed to automatically test and monitor your library's e-resources so you know exactly when access issues happen. It also works alongside your EZproxy tool to automatically verify
that all the links in your stanza files are functioning correctly.<br>
If you are interested in joining the pilot alongside the others, please visit the following link:

Subject: [Eril-l] I built a tool to automate daily proxy and e-resource access checks (Demo attached + Seeking testers)<br>
<br>
Hi everyone,<br>
Sorry for cross-posting,<br>
Like many of you, I have spent countless hours manually clicking through proxy links just to make sure our databases are actually working for students off-campus. There is nothing more frustrating than finding out a vendor changed their platform or an authentication
stanza broke only after a stressed student submits a helpdesk ticket from home.<br>
Working in an academic library setting, I finally got tired of the manual clicking and decided to build something to automate this daily grind. I?m calling it LibPages Lighthouse.<br>
It essentially acts as an automated staff member. It logs in and verifies access exactly like a patron would, catching outages proactively.<br>
I have attached a quick demo video to this email so you can see exactly how it works under the hood. In the demo, you can watch the agent run, navigate a proxy login, validate access for a couple of publishers (AIP and BMJ), and update the dashboard.<br>
Here is a quick look at how it fits into our specific library workflows:<br>
<br>
*<br>
Off-Campus & Proxy Validation: Lighthouse runs through your EZproxy, OpenAthens or any proxy tool setup to validate that off-campus access is actively working and the vendor page loads. (It can also test direct on-campus IP access).<br>
*<br>
Publisher-Friendly & Lightweight: To simulate normal patron usage, it only runs once a day per resource. There is no web scraping and zero unnecessary file downloads?it strictly asserts that the authentication was successful and the resource is up.<br>
*<br>
Flexible Execution: You run the testing agent directly from your managed off-campus network or a designated PC, meaning the traffic looks completely normal to vendors.<br>
*<br>
Subscription Tracking: I added a feature to attach expiry dates to specific publisher tests, so it notifies you before a subscription lapses.<br>
<br>
While I am launching this as a commercial SaaS platform, right now I am looking for a few fellow library folks to be early adopters. I would love for you to test it out on your proxy setup and give me some honest feedback. As a thank you for participating and
helping shape the tool, I will be providing all early adopters with an extended free month of full access once the testing phase wraps up.<br>
If you are interested in letting Lighthouse handle your daily access checks, you can check out the onboarding details here:

<br>
Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm posting from the University of Colorado Boulder Libraries. We are wondering if any other libraries are experiencing access issues with the De Gruyter Brill platform?<br>
<br>
For going on 3 weeks, when we try to access from any of our authenticated IP ranges, or via Seamless Access, we receive a server error like this:<br>
[cid:88a5717f-e970-4aa7-9121-b4a2047b82b6]<br>
<br>
If we are outside our IP ranges and go to the De Gruyter Brill platform, we are able to access Open Access ebooks just fine.<br>
<br>
De Gruyter technical support is aware of the problem and is working on it (they advise that refreshing the page fixes the server error, but that has not worked for us), but due to the persistence and length of this issue, we're wondering if anyone else has
experienced a similar error with De Gruyter Brill and has any suggestions on a solution?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>

I just checked and we can access titles through direct links, but any searches we try to do on the degruyterbrill platform itself results in a "Mac challenge attempts exceeded. Please refresh the page to try again!" error. I'm going to contact support, as well.<br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm posting from the University of Colorado Boulder Libraries. We are wondering if any other libraries are experiencing access issues with the De Gruyter Brill platform?<br>
<br>
For going on 3 weeks, when we try to access from any of our authenticated IP ranges, or via Seamless Access, we receive a server error like this:<br>
[cid:image002.png@01DCC5D1.097CE8D0]<br>
<br>
If we are outside our IP ranges and go to the De Gruyter Brill platform, we are able to access Open Access ebooks just fine.<br>
<br>
De Gruyter technical support is aware of the problem and is working on it (they advise that refreshing the page fixes the server error, but that has not worked for us), but due to the persistence and length of this issue, we're wondering if anyone else has
experienced a similar error with De Gruyter Brill and has any suggestions on a solution?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
