Resolved :Athens access for students

**We believe this issue to be resolved, if you are still having problems logging on please contact us via athens@bcu.ac.uk **

There is currently an issue with logging in to Athens resources owing to an upgrade our student records service, which seems to be mainly affecting off-campus access.  Our CICT colleagues are looking into this and will let us know when this is resolved.

You should be able to access most e-journals and other resources (apart from Myilibrary e-books & market reports) via our discovery service Summon in the meantime. We will add some alternative non-Athens routes to resources via the AtoZ of Electronic Resources where we can.

Please contact us if you have problems accessing resources via athens@bcu.ac.uk and we will post here when the issue has been resolved.
