CSA databases move to new Proquest platform

CSA (now a part of Proquest) 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 been moved to the new Proquest platform, which also hosts 12 other databases. These can all be searched through Nelli as well as on the platform.

Nelli portal to Aalto identification on Monday 9 May 2011

There will be service breaks in Off campus access on Monday 9th of May 2011, as we move to using Aalto indentification in the Nelli-portal. After the change all users with Aalto identification can remotely use the materials through Nelli.

The old MySpace accounts are available until Sunday 8th of  May 2011.

Unfortunately the MySpace accounts in Nelli can not be converted from the old to the new user names. Please save the references in your bookshelf to eg. Refworks or some other reference management system. You will need to find and save your preferred databases, journals and alerts again after the new log-in begins.

Move to new SFX: Monday the 17th of January 2011

As I posted last year, we are moving to a new version of SFX-linking and the SFX-window will have more content and a new look. The move was delayed several times from the original timetable, but has now been confirmed to take place on Monday the 17th of January. There is a possibility of a Nelli usage break of up to 5 minutes.

Important changes in the Nelli-portal

The Nelli portal will start using Aalto identification in the beginning part of 2011.
Unfortunately the MySpace accounts in Nelli can not be converted from the old to the new user names. Please save the references in your bookshelf to eg. Refworks or some other reference management system. You will need to find and save your preferred databases, journals and alerts again after the new log-in begins.

Minor changes to SFX-linking

A new version of SFX will be taken to use sometime next week. The functionality remains the same, but the SFX window now has more library catalogs and a new look. There should be no break in service and all materials should work as before.
