Problems with PsycARTICLES and PsycBOOKS? - jcarrell - 12-10-2019
Hi all,
I'm unable to access PsycARTICLES and PsycBOOKS at PVCC. I can only access PyscINFO. Is this just us, or this is VCCS-wide? These are the links we use:
PsycARTICLES: http://library.vccs.edu/license-bin/linker.plx?apapa
PsycBOOKS: http://library.vccs.edu/license-bin/linker.plx?apabooks
PsycINFO: http://library.vccs.edu/license-bin/linker.plx?apapsyinfo
PsycNET (goes to all three): http://library.vccs.edu/license-bin/linker.plx?apa
The only thing I can see in PsycNET is PsycINFO, but the others should be there. The direct links also only take me to PsycINFO. Is anyone else seeing the same thing?
Anne sent out an email back in October that we lost access to APA, but VIVA was working on it. I haven't heard anything since then.

Jacqueline:
I can verify that I have off campus access to PsycArticles through TCC. Just to be sure I am reading your message correctly, when you click on All Databases, PsycInfo is the only one listed? TCC stopped using linker codes a couple years ago. The link we are using is http://eztcc.vccs.edu:2048/login?url=http://psycnet.apa.org/psycarticles/search

I don't seem to be having any trouble here at GCC. I don't use linkers anymore, just proxied links. I did test the linker, too, and it appears to be working.
We don't have PsycBOOKS at GCC, so I can't speak to that one. I did think we were supposed to have access to all the books up to the subscription stopped, though, and I'm not seeing anything accessible. My memory may be failing me on how that one is supposed to work.

Ok, this must be just PVCC. I'll talk to Crystal and see how she wants to proceed. We're supposed to be have PsycBOOKS from 2010-2017. Here's what I'm seeing at PVCC:

No PsycARTICLES or PsycBOOKS. Jacque, I tried your link - just changed out eztcc to ezpvcc - and same thing.
