We experienced the same problem last Tuesday. By the end of the day, it was fixed.  I understand it was a problem that affected certain titles for all subscribers.

Last Tuesday, we could not access most of our Highwire journals including BMJ, Oxford, Sage.

We were getting a forbidden error when trying to access the pdf of an article.

 

I called the Hotline. It give info about outages, etc.

Then I e-mailed their contact email & it worked out.

Subject: [SERIALST] Access question

 

Are any other institutions out there having problems accessing certain Highwire journals?

Since Friday we have not been able to access, for examples:

 

Chest

Faseb Journal

Genes & Development

Journal of Leukocyte Biology

 

Our IT people say it’s a routing issue and they are trying to work it out with the Highwire people.

 

Just wondering if it’s just us.

Thanks!
