PsychInfo, MLA and others not working....
The newly configured limited use workstations (the 2 computers near the entrance of Periodicals room) are having some problems.
PsychInfo and MLA indexes cannot be fully accessed at these computers. There are likely other indexes that will present problems as well.
The reason for this issue is that computers only allow access to web sites that end in .edu, .gov or .state.mn.us Some databases end in .com or .org and thus can't be accessed currently at limited use workstations.
We are figuring out how to solve this problem, and hopefully offer access to these sites.
Library users can use Open Access stations (other side of the basemenet) or Log-In computers to access the full range of Internet resources with no restrictions.
Please let full-time staff know if you discover that other indexes/databases are not working at the limited use computers.

Evidently things are up and running again. So I guess we figured this conundrum out!
