Hi Andrew
Thank you for sharing this, we've added it to our library Known Problems
webpage to pre-empt any questions. I would appreciate it if you could
update when Oxford let you know this sorted.
We also have an ongoing technical issue logged with Oxford which other
libraries may have reported. Off campus institutional login via Shibboleth
to Oxford journals via a mobile phone doesn't work, the only option to
access Oxford journals off campus on a phone is to choose to revert to the
full site, rather than the the mobile version. This is an issue which may
not affect many people, but we have a distance learner who is doing all her
research on a mobile phone so it is causing problems.
