TCC PsycArticles outage 11/15-19 - jdessino - 11-15-2018
i think APA's PsycNET is having problems tonight. Anyone else getting wonky messages and results from PsycArticles and/or PsycInfo?
When I tried my PsycArticles link, I got a PsycNet login page – didn’t even get into the database. When I tried the PsycInfo link, I got an error that said the site was not available due to maintenance or capacity issues. Since I haven’t removed the PsycBooks link yet, I tried it. That actually took me into PsycNet but, under Select Databases, all the databases were checked and I couldn’t uncheck them. I could search, but everything was pay for pdf. Then I tried the PsycArticles link again. This time I got into PsychNet but the logo wasn'tdisplaying, nor was the database list under Select Databases. When I tried to search, it just started churning.
I didn't put a ticket in to the SO, as I think it is an APA problem, but did want to check that it wasn't really just a TCC problem. j

Apparently, TCC was just special. APA had about a dozen or so schools report the same problem. They finally figured it out on Monday afternoon and we are back up and running with PsycArticles.
