We are happy to share that starting today we now have subscribed access to JAMA Cardiology. Our access starts with the first issue published in 2016.
You can find links to the journal in INNOPAC, our online catalog, the E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List, and through the WebBridge LR and LibKey Link link resolvers. The journal can also be accessed directly by going to https://ezproxy.lsuhsc.edu/login?url=https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamacardiology, but please remember that you will be asked to login if you are off campus. In addition, you can get to JAMA Cardiology and all other JAMA Network journals we subscribe to by logging in directly using OpenAthens.
If you need any help with this or other Library resources, please contact us.
On May 19, 2022, starting at 11pm all Lippincott Williams and Wilkins (LWW) journals and other journals on the Ovid platform will be unavailable for approximately an hour.
Some LWW journals are available via alternate methods, but hopefully this outage will prove to be just a slight interruption.
If you have any questions or need any assistance with Library resources, please contact us.
A project to cut through the walls on the 5th Floor is set to start on Thursday, April 28, 2022, and is to last for two months. There will be considerable noise in the area.
Once we learned this project was proceeding we asked it be delayed until after exams, but it will begin on Thursday.
If you use the online version of Word in Office 365 or newer versions of the desktop version of Word for Mac or Windows, the old Write-N-Cite product has been replaced by the RefWorks Citation Manager. This add in is only available through the Office Store and, thanks to the help from Campus IT, it is now available for everyone to download and use.
Instructions on installing this extension are available in our RefWorks LibGuide. If you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.
April 4th Update: The problem appears to have been fixed and searches of the list are retrieving results again.
March 30th Update: We are again experiencing a complete outage of the A to Z List and will update when we know more. Please contact us if you need any assistance.
UPDATE March 22nd: The problem has been fixed, so the A to Z List is working correctly now.
Original post:
The E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List is not working as it should this morning. All searches yield a “no results found” message.
The company that runs the list has been investigating the problem for a while now, and we will update when we have more information.

UPDATE: The problem appears to be fixed, so all links to ClinicalKey from any Library resources should work correctly. Please contact us if you have trouble.
Links from the Library’s catalog, E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List, and the EDS Health Discovery service to books and journals in ClinicalKey are currently not working. This problem is affecting all ClinicalKey customers.
We are happy to now offer more journals published by the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). In addition to our existing subscriptions to Radiology and Radiographics, we now have access to the newest journals published by the Society:
UPDATE: The system is up and running, but contact us if you have any problems.
At 10am on Wednesday, December 22, 2021, INNOPAC, the Library’s online catalog will not be available for at least one hour. During this time you will also not be able to log into EZproxy using your Library barcode and PIN. The WebBridge Link Resolver is affected by this outage as well.
It’s a lot easier to know whether an article you’re reading or would like to cite has been retracted with new features available in LibKey Nomad, LibKey Link, and LibKey.io. These tools now make it easier than ever to see that something has happened to a published article and has been retracted.
If you use LibKey Nomad, you will see in your search results in many databases that the article has been retracted:
These alerts extend to LibKey Link and LibKey.io when you see this screen with options for getting the original article:
When you see this screen, it also provides additional information explaining why the article was retracted:
Finally, if you have LibKey Nomad and go to a publisher’s site for an article, you will see this icon displayed at the bottom of the page for a retracted article:
Hopefully this information will be useful in your research needs, but if you have any questions about this or any other Library resources contact us.
When you want to share a link to an article with classmates, colleagues, or your students, it’s important to make sure they can get to it regardless of whether they are on or off campus. We recommend using our off campus link generator to help with this, but sometimes the link may still not work right for any number of reasons. There’s good news, though, as LibKey.io can help!
LibKey.io is a quick way to find access to a journal article using just a PMID or DOI.
All you need to do is plug the number into the handy search box and it does all the heavy lifting to get you to the article. However, there is also another benefit to using LibKey.io: it gives you an easy link to share with others so they can get to an article easily.
When you search a PMID or DOI in LibKey.io, you will see this screen with options for getting the article:
A hidden benefit when you see this page, though, is the URL of the page can also be used as a permanent/durable link to get this article!
If you follow the Library’s link to Dynamed that routes through the EZproxy service, please be advised that images are not showing up for each topic now. This affects accessing Dynamed off campus or when on campus and connected to the LSUHSC-Secure wifi network.
Until this problem is fixed, you can access Dynamed directly using OpenAthens. First, go to https://www.dynamed.com and click on the person icon on the right of the page:
Then, click on the “Sign in now” link:
Next, click “Institutional OpenAthens” at the bottom of the screen:
At the next screen enter “lsu” in box on the right and choose “LSU Health Sciences Center Library” when it appears:
Finally, enter your full LSUHSC-NO e-mail address and current password and you will finally have access to Dynamed!
We will update when we have more information about this problem with Dynamed and EZproxy, but if you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.
November 15, 2021 Update: Good news! The new version of Web of Science now works with LibKey Nomad! You can use what is hopefully your favorite browser extension to help you get to articles more easily when searching Web of Science.
Now that LibKey Nomad supports the new Web of Science, when you search a topic, the results will give you quick access to PDFs:
The legacy version of Web of Science is set to be retired in early 2022, so this is a very welcome addition for LibKey Nomad.
If you need help with this or any other Library resources, contact us.
___________________________________
Original post from June 7, 2021: If you’ve started using the new version of Web of Science, please note that it is not yet compatible with LibKey Nomad.
In the old version of Web of Science, you will see the LibKey Nomad enhancements including journal cover images and quick links to PDFs from the search results:
In the new Web of Science you will only see links to our WebBridge LR link resolver that will help you get the full text of the article:
We will update when the new Web of Science supports LibKey Nomad, but if you need help with this or any other Library resources please contact us.

If you are trying to access a Wiley book or journal with a link that goes through our EZproxy system, those are currently not working correctly. All EZproxy users are experiencing this problem, and it affects links to Wiley titles in the Library’s catalog, E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List, our WebBridge Link Resolver, and all LibKey products.
Until this problem is fixed, you can access Wiley journals and books directly by using OpenAthens.
Next, click on Institutional Login at the bottom right of the box:
