We are aware that some students are having trouble accessing textbooks from links provided in their syllabus. The links go to an old system for off campus access and they will not work.
Any link that starts with http://0- is affected. Also, if the links do not begin https://ezproxy you will have trouble accessing the book off campus.
Some links also require a certain format for them to work. If you are given a link to a ClinicalKey book that does not have “dura/browse” anywhere in it, then it will also not work correctly regardless of whether you are on campus or off campus.
These are the correct links for some of the textbooks we know you are trying to access:
If you have trouble accessing any textbooks, please contact us.
If you are an instructor, we are more than happy to look over any links you have in a syllabus or are posting in Moodle. Again, please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can ensure students can get to their required materials.
UPDATE: The problem with using e-mail to log in to Library resources appears to have been fixed. However, if you run into any trouble, you can always use one of the alternate log in methods described below.
We are currently experiencing issues with the system that allows you to log in to Library resources using your e-mail. This problem also affects web mail.
All connections through Citrix appear to be working fine at the moment.
If you have a Library barcode and PIN, you can use that to log in by clicking on the green bar when you get to this screen:
You can also log in here using your LSUHSC-NO user i.d. (everything before the @lsuhsc.edu in your e-mail address) and your current password.
If you need any help with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
If you follow the Library’s link to PubMed and then want to e-mail citations, you will see an error message that will not allow you to proceed:
This is caused by the reCAPTCHA that is now required to send e-mails from PubMed not working nicely with our EZproxy system. Unfortunately, there are no plans for PubMed to make changes that will allow this functionality to work correctly when using a link to PubMed that goes through EZproxy.
If you want to e-mail articles from PubMed, you can go directly to https://pubmed.gov, perform your search, and then e-mail the articles with no problem. Unfortunately, you will lose some of the features our link to PubMed offers, such as turning on our WebBridge LR Link Resolver to check for the availability of articles in all citations in PubMed.
However, if you use the e-mail function frequently and are therefore going to PubMed directly, there are a couple of options that will help you regain some of these features lost by not using our link.
First, if you use Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, or Vivaldi browsers, you can install the LibKey Nomad extension that makes getting to the full text of articles super easy in PubMed. Check out our LibKey Nomad LibGuide for more information.
Second, you can sign up for a My NCBI account. Once you have done this, there is a setting you can change that will turn on our WebBridge LR Link Resolver icons in PubMed. More information about this setting and a video walkthrough is available on our WebBridge LR Link Resolver LibGuide.
If you need help with this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
*edit* Libraries and both campuses reopened at 8am on Tuesday, August 25th for badgeholders only.
The LSUHSC Libraries and the LSUHSC campuses will be closed on Monday, August 24th in advance of Hurricane Marco. We hope to reopen both locations at 8am on Tuesday, weather permitting.
We have some great news for all Firefox users: the LibKey Nomad extension that makes using PubMed simple and getting articles a breeze is now available for Firefox!
LibKey Nomad brings the Library’s online subscriptions to you by enhancing PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, along with many other sources. It’s easy to link to the full text of journal articles with this extension by your side.
Firefox now joins Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, and Brave in the family of LibKey Nomad-compatible browsers. We have a LibGuide that walks you through installing and configuring the extension along with showing off some of its features.
You can download the Firefox Add-On here. We also have a video that walks you through installing and configuring this helpful tool.
If you have any questions about this or any other Library resources, contact us. We’re always ready to help!

The Library is happy to announce the renewal of ClinicalKey with generous funding from the School of Medicine! We are pleased to be able to continue to offer this extensive package of current and vital health sciences resources for another year. This database provides electronic access to over 1,000 books, nearly 700 journals, and a clinical search engine covering more than 30 specialties.
Every month, ClinicalKey adds new ebooks or editions to the collection. The most recent additions include:
A new selection of articles have been added to the Faculty Publications display in the Ische Library. These eight articles, as well as all of the articles in our Faculty Publications database, are authored by at least one member of our research community here at LSUHSC-New Orleans. Each month the Library is proud to present copies of eight of these publications in a rotating display of 16. With the currently changes, we’ve decided to post the publications digitally. Check out the display below:
Publications cited in the Faculty Publications database are harvested weekly from a variety of sources, such as PubMed, SCOPUS, and CINAHL, to name a few. In addition to articles they include books, book chapters, papers, editorials, letters to the editor, and meeting abstracts, all authored by at least one member of the LSUHSC-NO community. The database is maintained by Reference Librarian Kathy Kerdolff and is available to the general public here or via the Library’s webpage. For a PDF of a bibliography of this month’s additions,click here. If you have an article you would like us to highlight or if you have any questions regarding the display or the database, you can contact Kathy Kerdolff.
The Chronicle of Higher Education has reported a data security incident. Some account holder names, email addresses, usernames, and passwords for some online accounts to chronicle.com, philanthropy.com, and/or chroniclevitae.com were posted online by unauthorized parties. Account holders should have received notification from the Chronicle, and the Chronicle reset all passwords. If account holders use the same usernames and passwords for any other online account, The Chronicle recommends that they change the passwords to those accounts as well. Complete information about what happened can be read at https://www.chronicle.com/page/notice-of-data-breach.
We are happy to announce the availability of a new product from Third Iron, makers of BrowZine, LibKey Link, and LibKey Nomad, that makes getting articles using just a PMID and DOI not only possible but also incredibly easy!
This new product is called LibKey.io and it combines the easy linking you’ve enjoyed from the other Third Iron products with our Library’s journal holdings and link resolver to make retrieving articles as simple and easy as it has ever been.
You can access LibKey.io from the Library’s homepage under the Quick Links section:
Once you click the LibKey.io link, you will see a page where you can enter a PMID or a DOI for the article you need:
Once you enter a PMID or a DOI, you will be presented with a page that typically has many options for getting that article:
In some cases or if there are no sources for the full text of that article, you will be brought to our WebBridge LR link resolver where you may find other sites where the article is available or the option to request it through Interlibrary Loan.
You can find out more about LibKey.io in this new section of the BrowZine LibGuide, including a quick video walk through. We hope you will find this new service helpful, but if you have any questions about this or any other Library resources, please contact us.
