We have received reports that alumni are being informed they can access Library resources online once they receive an alumni email account. This is incorrect. Alumni do not have access to the Library’s online resources and subscriptions.
Alumni who have been issued an alumni email cannot access Library resources due to licensing restrictions.
If you need any more information or have any questions, please contact us.
January 18, 2024 – Digital Scholar will be performing a planned outage tonight, Thursday, January 18th, 2024 from the hours of 6PM – 9PM.
Apologies for any inconvenience! Please contact rholle@lsuhsc.edu or digitalscholar@lsuhsc.edu with any questions or concerns. Thank you!
UPDATE: The problem appears to be fixed as of 2:45pm 12/11/2023, but if you encounter any problems 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 and the E-Journals & E-Books A to Z List. In all instances, there is a Cloudflare connection check, and the EZproxy links are stalling and will not redirect to the content after logging in.
Until this problem is fixed, you can access Wiley journals and books directly by using OpenAthens.
Start at https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com. When at the Wiley site, click Login/Register on the right of the screen:
Next, click on Institutional Login at the bottom right of the box:
Then, click on Sign in with your OpenAthens account:
On the next screen, enter LSU and click on LSU Health Sciences Center Library:
Then you will be able to enter your LSUHSC-NO full e-mail address and current password, after which you can access all of the Wiley titles we have access to through our subscriptions.
If you are attempting to get to an article in a Wiley journal from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, etc., those links appear to be working as expected.
We will update when we have more information about this issue, but if you need any help with this or other Library resources please contact us.
Due to low use, we will not be renewing our subscriptions to the following journals for 2024:
Also, the following titles are moving to new publishers, but we will not be subscribing to them for 2024 because of low use:
Articles published in 2024 from any of these journals may be requested through our Interlibrary Loan service.
If you need help with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
UPDATE: Logging in using an email or via OpenAthens at publishers’ sites is working again.
Wednesday, December 6, 2023: Logging in using your LSUHSC-NO email address to use Library resources is currently unavailable. The OpenAthens service is experiencing an outage, and that is preventing us from using that option both through our EZproxy service and directly at publisher’s websites.
Until this problem is resolved, there is an alternate way to log into Library resources. When you see this screen, click on the green bar:
Then, enter your username (without the @lsuhsc.edu), and your current password in the two boxes:
We will update when we have more information about this problem, but if you need assistance please contact us.
The following Springer Publishing journals will be unavailable on December 5, 2023, from 8am until noon for system maintenance:
If you need assistance with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
UPDATE: The OpenAthens issue has been resolved, so logging in with emails via EZproxy and directly at publisher sites is working again.
Original Post: There are problems with the OpenAthens service that is preventing using an email to log into Library resources both through EZproxy and directly at publishers’ sites.
They are working on the problem as it is affecting all users, so until that time when you land on the EZproxy login page, expand the green box and enter your username (without the @lsuhsc.edu part) and your current network password:
Please remember barcodes are no longer accepted.
We will update when we have more information, but if you need assistance to get into any Library resources, please contact us.
We are happy to report that through the great generosity of Quintessence Publishing we are able to provide easier access to their journals.
Now, instead of having to log in with a password, you can get to the full text of Quintessence journals by logging in via EZproxy when prompted. The records in our online catalog for the affected journals are updated to reflect this change, and you can get to those journals by clicking on the links on this page.
There are some issues with the links on the E-Books & E-Journals A to Z List, but we will have these updated to use the new access method as soon as we can.
This new access method is accompanied by a revamp of many of the Quintessence journal sites. There are a couple of things to look out for when trying to access the full text of articles on these new pages.
First, to get the PDF of an article, click the “Full Text” link underneath the article’s title to the left, and ignore the greyed out PDF link to the right:
Second, to browse through the issues of a title, scroll down when on the journal’s main page:
We hope this makes accessing content from the Quintessence journals easier. We would also like to thank Quintessence Publishing for their generosity in providing complimentary access to many of the journals we receive from them.
If you need help with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.

UPDATE: Please see our post from September 15, 2023, regarding resolution of this issue
Quintessence Publishing recently updated their website, and we are having problems logging into the online content for journals on the new site. Most links from the records in the catalog go to the old site, where the logins work correctly. However, if you are redirected to the new site, please note you are unable to log in to get articles.
We are working with our subscription agent to resolve the issue and will update when we know more.
Please let us know if you need help with this or any other Library resources.
Starting July 31st, we now have access to StatPearls, a board review resource and question bank. Our subscription includes the following packages:
All Medical Specialties
Nurse Practitioner
Nursing Certification
Nursing NCLEX (RN and PN)
Pharmacy
Physician Assistant
USMLE Steps 1, 2, and 3
For more information visit our database page for StatPearls: https://www.lsuhsc.edu/library/databases/statpearls.aspx. To access our subscription, first visit the StatPearls LSUHSC-New Orleans registration portal and register. The link to the portal is on the database page.
If you need assistance, please contact your librarian liaison or email library technical services: librarytech@lsuhsc.edu.
Our subscription to Case Files Collection from McGraw-Hill is not working correctly. Ignore the message that says “Get Free Access Through Your Institution.” You can still access some of the content if you are not logged into your MyAccess profile/account, but if you log in to your profile, it should be working correctly.
Creating a MyAccess profile is free, and you will need a MyAccess profile to use all of the functionality of the cases. If you are off-campus, you will need to be in an authenticated web session first in order to create a profile. See more information about off-campus access here: https://www.lsuhsc.edu/library/offcampus.aspx.
If you need assistance, please contact your librarian liaison or library technical services: librarytech@lsuhsc.edu.
The library’s access to BoardVitals will be ending Monday, July 31st. The group through which we receive BoardVitals is switching to a different board review service, StatPearls, https://www.statpearls.com/. We will have access to select packages on StatPearls starting July 31st.
Packages to be included are:
All Medical Specialties
Nurse Practitioner Package
Nursing Certification Package
Nursing NCLEX Package (RN and PN)
Pharmacy Package
Physician Assistant Package
USMLE 1, 2, 3
We will provide more information about StatPearls once it becomes available.
We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
If you have any questions, please contact Head of Collection Development, Marlene Bishop, mbisho@lsuhsc.edu or LibraryTech@lsuhsc.edu.
UPDATE: The problem has been fixed, and you should be able to access ClinicalKey content as usual.
We are seeing a new organization prompt when accessing ClinicalKey both on and off campus:
The manager of the database is currently working to fix the problem. Until this is resolved, choose LSU Health New Orleans, general access.
If you need assistance with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
