Laura We did know about this - We hardly have any Wiley titles now and we used to give access via Ingenta when online was free with print. That did give home access with an Athens account as far as I remember. The one which we would like to change is CUP. That does cause us problems. I now link to the CUP site for each title rather than to SwetsWise. Possibly makes it easier for the students off campus. CUP is not Athens authenticated and they have given me an institutional username and password. But at least our users "know" it is not Athens when they go in. Maureen >>> L.Galloway @LIB.GLA.AC.UK 03/18 1:56 PM >>> Dear all, I wonder if anyone else has com across a problem with off-campus access to titles via SwetsWise using ATHENS authentication? I recently received a query from one of our distance learners who was unable to access Strategic management journal (Wiley) using her Athens log-in. I forwarded this query to the Swets helpdesk and have just been advised that Wily, as a "gateway" publisher, perform a secondary IP check. If the publisher is Athens-enabled, and their service is available to your institution as an Athens resource, access should still be granted for your off-campus Athens users (without a further User ID & Password prompt). Where the gateway publisher does not accept Athens, off-campus access will always be denied. Our problem is that our Wiley subs are not through the bundle deal, but rather individual subs paying extra to get e-access on top (an option which does not include ATHENS access as such). We are not therefore able to get off-campus access. Swets advise that their Publisher Relations departments are working with publishers to encourage them to accept the SwetsWise proxy instead of carrying out additional IP checks on end-users. We have asked them for the latest news on their progress with Wiley and have also requested a list of gateway publishers, to allow us to make this information available to our users. Perhaps others are already aware of this problem but I thought it might be of interest to those who hadn't yet come across it. I'll be sure to post a list of the other "gateway" publishers when I receive it from Swets. =========================================== Laura Galloway Serials/Document Delivery Glasgow University Library, Hillhead Street Glasgow G12 8QE, Scotland, UK Email: [log in to unmask] Maureen Richardson Journals and Electronic Resources Manager Learning Resource Centre Edge Hill St Helens Rd Ormskirk Lancashire L39 4QP [log in to unmask] Telephone: 01695 58 4596 Fax: 01695 58 4592
