Today PubMed along with all NCBI sites permanently changed their web addresses to use the HTTPS protocol. Unfortunately, this is now prompting a security warning when using the Library’s off-campus link to PubMed. Although in this case there is no real danger in proceeding, you will need to add a security exception to your browser in order to get to PubMed.
For Chrome, first click “Advanced”
Then click the link that begins with “Proceed to…” in order to add the exception to Chrome:
In Internet Explorer, click the link “Continue to this website (not recommended)”:
In Firefox, first click the “Add Exception” button:
Then click “Confirm Security Exception” to add it to Firefox:
Finally, for those for whom Safari is your browser of choice, you just need to click the “Continue” button in the window that pops up:

The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) has published a new article by Dr. Victor R. Fuchs entitled “Black Gains in Life Expectancy”. The article explains how much the life expectancy of Black Americans has increased. The article goes on to detail the leading factors which contributed in closing the gap between Black life expectancy and White life expectancy between the years of 1995 and 2014.
The journal issue is available to LSUHSC faculty, staff & students. It can be accessed off-campus with a valid LSUHSC library barcode & PIN. You can find more information at our remote access webpage.
If you are on campus or already logged in, you can access the article here.
RefWorks is currently developing a new and improved version of itself referred to simply as the new RefWorks. At this time, the new RefWorks does not have all of the same functionality as the old RefWorks, which is now referred to as legacy RefWorks. As such, we will not be migrating our subscription to the new RefWorks until all of the kinks have been straightened out. If you are prompted with a choice between the legacy version (orange) and the new version (blue), please select the legacy version (orange).
We will let you know when the new version is ready for prime time. As always, if you need assistance, please feel free to contact us.

If you use BrowZine to keep track of your favorite journals or to discover new ones, a recent update has brought the ability to scan articles that have yet to be assigned to a specific issue of a journal. These prepublication or epub ahead of print articles are now available through the “Articles in Press” link in the web and mobile versions of BrowZine.
On the web version, once you’ve found a journal you would like to peruse, look for the “Articles in Press” link just below the journal’s image:
On the Android and iOS apps, tap the “Available Issues” button, and you will now see these early view articles at the top of the list of available issues:

The web addresses for all Cambridge University Press journals have changed and as a result you will see a message regarding the security certificate for the new location. Although in this case there is no real danger in proceeding to the new site, you will need to add a security exception to your browser in order to view content from these journals. Each browser handles this situation in a different way, so hopefully the following will help you get to that Cambridge content.
For Chrome, click on “Advanced” and then click the link that begins with “Proceed to…”
In Internet Explorer, click the link “Continue to this website (not recommended)”
In Firefox, first click the “Add Exception” button:
Then click “Confirm Security Exception”
Finally, for those for whom Safari is your browser of choice, you just need to click the “Continue” button in the window that pops up:
Regardless of which browser you use, once you add this exception you will now be able to proceed to any journals from Cambridge without further harassment.
