UPDATE April 25, 2023: The issues with Thieme journals has been fixed.
Original post April 24, 2023: Thieme is having problems with the online versions of the journals we get from them, and at present only the tables of contents of the issues and abstracts of the articles are available.
We will update when we have more information.
If you need any help with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
INNOPAC, the Library Catalog, will be unavailable for approximately an hour starting at 11pm on Monday, April 10, 2023. The outage is necessary for a system update.
The majority of Library resources will still be available during this time.
These new subscriptions are thanks in large part to Marlene Bishop, Head, Collection Development, who was responsible for negotiating and finalizing the agreement for this resource, as well as the bulk of the Library’s offerings.
If you have any questions about this or any other Library resources, please contact us.

In addition to the Library’s existing subscriptions to Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences and the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, we now have access to the current issues of Biology Letters, Interface Focus, and Journal of the Royal Society Interface.
Previously, the three new journals were available after a one-year embargo, but our subscriptions to these titles now mean you can access the most recent content from these journals.

We now have a subscription to the American Chemical Society (ACS) Core Plus Package. This package has brought access to fifteen new journals, as well as adding current access to five journals already in the Library’s collection.

February 14, 2023 Update: The issue has been resolved, so you will be able to access this journal on campus and whenever a link goes through EZproxy. You can, however, still use the direct OpenAthens link if you’d like. Please let us know if you run into any problems.
If you attempt to get to this journal on campus or off campus via any Library link that goes through EZproxy, we are currently unable to get to any subscribed content.
If you need assistance with this or any other Library resource, please contact us.
With the ongoing network issues, the only way to add money to your PayPaw account is at the Bookstore. There is a minimum of $10, but cash cannot be used. The Bookstore opens weekdays at 9am.
As a result of the continuing issues with the LSUHSC-NO networks and systems, it is not possible to log in using a Library barcode and PIN at this time. You can log in using your LSUHSC-NO email and password or your LSUHSC-NO user i.d. and password.
Although the LSUHSC-NO site is finally available again, our EZproxy server has yet to be brought back online, meaning you will run into problems when attempting to get to many of our resources on and off campus. This affects the majority of links to online books and journals in the Library’s catalog and resources on the Databases listings, as well as many links to articles from the WebBridge Link Resolver and LibKey products. We do not have information on when the EZproxy service will be restored.
If you are off campus, you can log into many resources directly by using OpenAthens. A list of sites where you can do so and instructions are available on the OpenAthens LibGuide.
If you are on campus, all links to external sites will not work. We will see what can be done about this.
The Library will reopen on Tuesday, January 3, 2023, so please contact us if you need assistance with getting resources.
