EZProxy upgrade on Monday, August 26

Posting Date(s)

The Library’s instance of EZproxy is being upgraded from version 7.2.8 to 7.3 beginning at 4 pm on Monday, August 26. We expect the upgrade to be routine, and to take approximately two hours.

EZproxy will not be available during the upgrade. This means that off-campus users will have limited access to the Library's subscription databases and other subscription services. For example, users can use OneSearch but links to full text outside of OneSearch may fail: https://research.ebsco.com/c/xzprbb/search/advanced/filters?locale=en

On-campus users may continue to access subscription services during the upgrade, but they will need to manually remove the "https://proxy.library.upei.ca/login?url=" from links in order to gain access.
