LexisNexis Academic Library Database Errors

LexisNexis Academic is continuing to have some errors when you try to access it from off campus. I'm working with them to try to fix the problem.

In the meantime, try this solution:

Go back to the library databases page (using the back button in the same browser window) and click on the LexisNexis link again.

I hope this problem was not too frustrating for you. I know it's not working correctly, but I hope to have it working well soon.
Thank you for your patience.

We value your input

We've got a couple of trial databases this month. If you take a look at them, please take the time to let us know what you think. When we trial a database it is because we are thinking of purchasing it and your opinion is important.

Here are our trials:

• LexisNexis Academic - this is a great database! It's strong with news, business, and legal information. Our decision for this database will likely come down to price and how it fits in with our other databases.
• Global Road Warrior - this is a map and cultural database. We already have a similar database called WorldAtlas. We're investigating the differences.
