UPDATE! Scopus glitch in Citation Overview RESOLVED

Scopus developers have fixed the sorting issue in Citation Overview. If you continue to have problems, please contact the library.

Original post:

The sorting functions are not working in Scopus Citation Overview. The Scopus developers are working on the problem. Citations can be exported and then sorted using Excel. Sorting in the regular results display is not affected.


We will update this blog post once the problem has been fixed.

ClinicalKey problems

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.

If you need to get to a book or journal in ClinicalKey, follow this link: https://ezproxy.lsuhsc.edu/login?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com. Then you can look for the links to “Books” and “Journals” to browse to the title you want to use:

February Faculty Publications

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 PubMedSCOPUS, 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 will be available to the general public here or via the Library’s webpage. A PDF of a bibliography of this month’s addition will be available 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.

Isché Library – 5th Floor Construction

A temporary wall was put up on the 5th floor of the Isché Library over the winter break holiday. Library staff are unclear as to the length and scope of work occurring on the 5th floor. It appears part of the floor will be converted to non-library offices. We apologize for any noise or inconvenience this causes.

The water fountain on the 5th floor is now behind the wall so please use the fountains on the 4th or 3rd floors.
