Accessing Springer Protocols and journals

UPDATE: The problems should be fixed so Springer Protocols and journals should be available as usual via all Library links. If you run into one that is not or need any assistance, contact us.

We are currently experiencing problems accessing the Springer Protocols and all Springer journals both on campus and off campus through the Library’s EZproxy service (this would affect all links from Library pages and our Catalog).

If you need to access any Springer resources, you can do so using OpenAthens, but only when off campus. When you go to this page (https://link.springer.com/athens-shibboleth-login?previousUrl=https://link.springer.com/) under “Log in via Athens” find and select LSU Health Sciences Center. You will then need to enter your LSUHSC-NO e-mail and password, but once logged in you should be able to use all Springer resources to which the Library subscribes with no trouble.

We will update when we have more information, but if you need any help please do not hesitate to contact us.
