Changes to DawsonEra log-in: Bookshelves and notes will be lost!

The DawsonEra ebook platform is going to require Aalto log-in from Monday the 7th of March. This means the data saved under the TKK log-in names will be lost. This will affect two functions:

Favourites: Please ensure you copy your favourites list to another program, so you can easily find the books again and enter them into the new favourites list.

Notes: Please download your notes for each book and save them to another program. Once in a book with notes this can be done from the notes section and you will get a document with your notes with a reference to the pages in question.

We apologise for the inconvenience!

Scopus Download PDF tool

A Download PDF option has been added to the results list of the Scopus database. It allows the download of multiple selected articles at once from the publisher website. This option is always shown, whether we have a subscription to the journal in question or not. So, if we have bought access to the journal the pdf can be downloaded by Scopus, but if no access has been bought Scopus can not retrieve the document.

Scopus now also has SFX buttons beneath the records and you can check our access from the SFX-menu.

Google Scholar linking temporarily out of use

The SFX-linking in Google Scholar was disabled due to moving to the new version of SFX. We try to set up the linking again as soon as possible.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

CSA databases move to new Proquest platform

CSA has previously provided us access to over 60 separate databases, which could all be searched in the Nelli portal. Now these databases have been grouped into 21 larger databases and the searching no longer works in Nelli. The individual databases can still be searched on the CSA Illumina platform, by following the link in Nelli.

In a few months, however, access to the Illumina platform will cease, as Proquest (which CSA is now a part of) moves all of its databases to a new platform. After this migration it is no longer possible to search the separate databases. The new platform includes the 21 larger databases as well as 12 other databases. These can all be searched through Nelli as well as on the platform. These will be made available in Nelli as soon as possible. The old CSA databases have (CSA) in the title and the databases on the new platform are marked with (Proquest).

Temporarily no access to Wiley Chemical Handbooks

We currently have no access to the Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry or the Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. The publisher has been notified and asked to return access as soon as possible.

I apologise for the inconvenience caused!
