Just wanted you all to be aware that we have received several email from new nursing students who say that they are unable to log into Ovid MEDLINE remotely. They are trying to complete an online orientation module via WebCT. I've contacted Eric Forbis and submitted a help desk ticket, but it seems that the effected students do have Ovid userids and also have all of the correct library flags. We are trying to collect more detailed information from the students, such as the name of their instructors, the url for the WebCT page, what operating systems and browsers they are using, the exact text of the error message (or, even better, screen captures), whether they are blocking cookies, etc. So, if you hear from any additional effected students, please try to collect as much information as possible and let me and Liz know. I am also suggesting to the students that they try accessing Ovid MEDLINE directly from our homepage rather than using the links from their WebCT page.
I'll post to this blog when we have more information.
Thanks,
Martha
