Holly Eggleston – California Digital Library http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo The Official CDL Blog Tue, 25 Apr 2017 20:17:48 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.7.4 IPv6 and access to library resources http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/2016/07/14/ipv6-and-access-to-library-resources/ Thu, 14 Jul 2016 23:06:23 +0000 http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/?p=19519 More...]]> 2016-07-14_15-58-20

IEEE recently updated their IEEEXplore platform to be IPv6 aware, which means that if a user’s machine has an IPv6 address assigned to it – even if the machine has both an IPv6 address and a regular IP (“IPv4”) address available – the IPv6 address will take precedence for authentication. Machines using IPv4 only will continue to authenticate to IEEE using IPv4.

The transition from IPv4 to IPv6 in the U.S. has been (and will continue to be) extremely gradual. Individual UC campuses are at different points in the IPv6 rollout process. Some campuses currently have IPv6 addressing available on their selected networks and services. Because of this, soon after the IEEE upgrade, some UC users encountered problems accessing IEEE when on machines using IPv6 addresses.  Those issues have since been resolved and IEEE access should be working correctly for all campuses at this time.

If, in the future, you or your users encounter prompts for payment or login when accessing articles on IEEE, please follow the steps outlined in Helpline global ticket #5732 to gather IP diagnostic information and create a new ticket for CDL —  CDL will follow up with the user’s campus and IEEE to resolve the issue, and the user can use their campus remote access method(s) for resource access in the interim.

Please note that as of July 2016, IEEE is the only systemwide-licensed resource vendor that is IPv6 aware. Since other licensed resources are not aware of IPv6, they still will continue to solely authenticate using IPv4 even if IPv6 is available on the machine.

The CDL Helpline ticketing system is located at https://helpline.cdlib.org.

Three film resources transitioning from Chadwyck-Healey to ProQuest in late March http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/2016/03/09/three-film-resources-transitioning-from-chadwyck-healey-to-proquest-in-late-march/ Wed, 09 Mar 2016 17:52:51 +0000 http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/?p=18684 More...]]> The American Film Institute Catalog (AFI), Film Index International (FII) and the FIAF International Index to Film Periodicals will be moving to the main ProQuest platform in late March.

These databases on the ProQuest platform have been accessible via links from the Chadwyck-Healey platform since January.

CDL will switch the PIDs, cataloging records and other access points to direct to the new site on March 28th.

AFI Catalog – http://uclibs.org/PID/7410  (All campuses)

Film Index International – http://uclibs.org/PID/44296  (All campuses)

FIAF – http://uclibs.org/PID/105490  (UCB, UCI, UCLA, UCM, UCSB, UCSC, UCSD, and UCSF)

New Licensed Resource – 60 MINUTES: 1997-2014 http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/2016/03/08/new-licensed-resource-60-minutes-1997-2014/ Tue, 08 Mar 2016 18:57:52 +0000 http://www.cdlib.org/cdlinfo/?p=18670 More...]]> All UC campuses now have access to 60 MINUTES: 1997-2014:

http://uclibs.org/PID/281255       (All campuses; on the Alexander Street Press platform)

CDL fully funded this resource on behalf of all campuses.

From the website: This online collection provides 350 hours of video from 17 years of broadcasts, including hundreds of segments not available anywhere else in the world. True to 60 MINUTES’ iconic style, each news segment within the collection serves as a standalone short documentary on a specific news topic. The broad range of content offers boundless applications for students and researchers.

Please note, there are some gaps videos provided – the collection is not exhaustive for all segments aired during that time period. Should CBS clear rights for any missing segments within the timeframe covered (1997-2014) they will make the segments available through Alexander Street Press.

This resource also includes 175 hours of bonus segments from the popular CBS News program Sunday Morning, whose timely news pieces, cultural features, and newsmaker profiles form an ideal complement to 60 MINUTES content. The addition of this bonus programming brings the collection to a total of 525 hours of high-quality CBS News content.

Changes to these database interfaces include:

• A fresh new look – Newly enhanced interfaces offer compelling graphics and cleaner, more streamlined designs.
• More intuitive navigation – A prominent search box and larger tabs encourage searching and discovery. Features unique to Readex—like the metadata-based browse options—have been retained for the users and librarians who appreciate the filtering they enable.
• Better image viewing – Working with historical documents is now easier for both novice and seasoned users. Improved magnification means less time spent adjusting and reloading images, resulting in faster, more efficient research.

Early American Imprints, Series I: Evans:  http://uclibs.org/PID/23074
Early American Imprints, Series II: Shaw-Shoemaker: http://uclibs.org/PID/119924
Early American Newspapers, Series 1: http://uclibs.org/PID/42513
Early American Newspapers, Series 2: http://uclibs.org/PID/275700
