Dear All, I am having similar quandries at the moment and am frequently receiving emails from students who have been referred back to me from Cambridge about getting access to the off-campus password we've been given. I think we're currently hanging on with waiting for Athens developments at the moment. Its a bit frustrating as the half measure of referring people to this temporary password is a bitty solution. Do we advertise it on mass and then have to revise those instructions when (if?) Athens access is set-up or dish it out in dribs and drabs? On the other issue of access through Swetswise, I do wish we could have some sort of notice that more clearly indicates on Swetswise that even if you login in with Athens you're gonna have difficulties trying to access Cambridge content remotely because of student expectations about the type of service provided by Swetswise.

Still no date for Athens, though they did give us a password for off-campus use, which is better than nothing.

(Or have I only just noticed an entry that's been up for some time !)
