de Gruyter Platform Update

Update: 1/20/2012

According to the latest correspondence with deGruyter, a new release of the plaform will be pushed live today that should correct many problems.  However, there will be an ongoing process of upgrading and enhancing the platform.  If you are experiencing problems, please check back this upcoming Monday (1/23/2012).

*******************************************

As of today, there are still many issues with the new deGruyter platform.  The two main issues are listed below:

1) There is a bug that randomly displays the following error message on any given serial resource: "An error has occurred in the application. Please contact support. Thank you for your patience and understanding."   This means that a journal may be accessible one day, but gone the next.
2) There are duplicate articles for any given issue.  One will not have a PDF link on the page, but the other duplicate article title (usually further down the page) will have the PDF link.

Please be assured that we are in close contact with the publisher.  Last we heard, they did not have a projected date of when these issues will be resolved.  We will update this page as soon as we have one.

deGruyter Platform Down

Back in December, deGruyter attempted to migrate all of their content (ejournals, ebooks, etc.) to a new platform.  Since then there have been several issues with the new platform, which prevent users from accessing the content even if it is searched on the platform itself.  We have been in discussion with deGruyter about these issues, and they reassure us that an update this Friday (1/6/2012) will fix many of the issues.

Anthrosource journals migrating to Wiley Online Library

Anthrosource journals have migrated to Wiley Online Library. The links in OskiCat are not redirecting to the new platform. We are working with the publisher to get the links corrected. Meanwhile try searching for the Anthrosource journals in the Wiley Online Library by using the URL below. Please be aware that the Wiley website only lists current titles.  Issues published under the former title of  a journal can only be accessed via its current title.
