We are currently experiencing some problems with faulty links to articles from the database alerts that are emailed to you (if you've registered for them)
While we are waiting for the databases to fix the faulty links to articles, there is a way of manually fixing the URL to retrieve the article.
This can be useful for if you want to include links on web pages or Library Live or Edulink
You need to insert the UJ code into the article URL.
The code is in 2 parts: one part (0-) comes directly after the http:// and the other (ujlink.uj.ac.za) comes directly before the first stroke /
So you need to change this:
https://apkmail.uj.ac.za/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://web.ebscohost.com./ehost/detail?vid=2%26hid=12%26sid=38613024-f154-4a9c-8d09-4abfd1bdfd1c%2540sessionmgr7
To this:
http://0-web.ebscohost.com.ujlink.uj.ac.za/ehost/detail?vid=2&hid=12&sid=38613024-f154-4a9c-8d09-4abfd1bdfd1c%40sessionmgr7
Do not change anything else in the URL, only insert the coding.
