We had the problem from this morning until about 4pm but it is OK for us now.

> Hi,

> We are finding that SpringerLink URLs with the domain
> www.springerlink.com<http://www.springerlink.com> are not functioning at the
> moment and because we use Serials Solutions for our OPAC records and as our
> link resolver and this is the syntax that they use we cannot get through to
> the site, their journals, articles etc. It's like it's vanished completely as
> a domain!
>
> The link with the domain springerlink.metapress.com works as does
> www.metapress.com<http://www.metapress.com> so if you are using this domain in
> your URLs you won't be seeing this problem.
>
> I also tested access to at least one of their journals using SCOPUS and their
> direct links to this publisher (I used the journal Planta as the example)
> aren't working either.
>
> I have emailed the Springer helpdesk about this problem, but haven't heard
> anything back yet.
>
> Is anyone else having problems with linking to SpringerLink at the moment or
> is it just us?
