Web of Science via my library - how?
Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2008 11:17 am
Hi - the Bookends user manual says I can access WOS through my library, but I can't seem to make it work.
I'm asked to enter the URL, which I assume is the URL that appears in my browser when I log in to WOS through the library. It looks like this: apps.isiknowledge.com.proxy.lib.umich.edu/UA_GeneralSearch_input.do?product=UA&search_mode=GeneralSearch&SID=3C2dGABOIKche57fDB5&preferencesSaved=
I've tried using this after logging in to the library server via my browser (with "User ID/Password" unchecked). I've also tried checking "User ID/Password" both with and without entering the ID and password.
In most cases it just says "awaiting reply" and hangs. If I enter only this much of the URL: apps.isiknowledge.com.proxy.lib.umich.edu -- it prompts for user name and password, then says "Found. The document has moved here. Apache 1.3.34 server at login.umdl.umich.edu Port 80.
Am I doing something wrong, or can this just not be done through a proxy server?
