Wall Street Journal/SFX issue

Rosemary has been planning a class that will likely require students to access some articles from the Wall Street Journal. She discovered that there's a "metadata mismatch" happening between SFX and the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) on Proquest. This means that whenever someone finds a WSJ article in Academic Search Premier, clicks the Get Article button, and then clicks on Go to get to the article from the SFX menu, the search will fail every single time. The ProQuest Newspapers database will open, but it will tell you that no documents were found. If you remove the phrase "- Eastern Edition" from the ProQuest search box and click on Search, you will actually be able to read the article you were looking for.

This problem has been reported to both CARLI (our SFX tech support) and ProQuest (which Paige at CARLI suggested might be able to move a bit faster than the folks at Ex Libris). In the meantime, this workaround will get students to the info they need.

First Aid Class

We have been getting an odd question at the desk: do we have a defibrillator in this building? No we do not. And we will be getting a list of where there are ones on campus but we do not have that information at this point.

Thanks!

Professor Gems' SOA/HPE-360 class

Professor Gems will be having his students come in for some articles that are only available through the archives. Kim will be gone Friday and Monday, so these particular articles will not be available until Tuesday. There are other articles in the list that he has give his students, one is accessible through our databases and the other is available through our archive site of the chronicle, have them use those articles.

Thanks!
Heidi
