Hi,
Apologies, it appears that it depends on which journal you try as to
whether it is getting redirected. The redirection must be moving down
the list alphabetically. I didn't have time to check them all, just the
first few on the alphabetical list i.e. Abdominal Imaging is being
redirected but Cell and Tissue Research isn't at the moment.
I guess we all just need to sit and wait for the redirection to be
completed. It's a real shame for any of our users who are going to be
totally confused why our links aren't working.
Cheers
Lesley

Ours aren't either at Leeds! This is really odd ...

Hi again,
Our links to http://link.springer.de are still not working. I hope
whoever it was that fixed the links for the University of Hertfordshire
will do so soon with all the other sites.
