Hello,

One of our journal subscriptions is moving platforms and instead of having our perpetual access be maintained on the old or new site, the publisher is sending us pdf files of the issues we own. Have any of you encountered this situation? Could you share what you have done to maintain access to those pdf’s for users?

Thanks,

Rachel Blume

Subject: [SERIALST] Is it true that EBSCO EJS was discontinued?

Hello,

3 people at EBSCO had told me that EBSCO EJS has been discontinued since 2016. We still use the platform and EBSCO is updating holdings for our journals to the current year. I am wondering if they mean they are no longer updating the platform, but still updating holdings for those who sue it. 99% of the time EJS works.

I'm going to speak with an EBSCO engineer soon about it. I just wondered if anyone else had insights into this.

Thanks,
