Interface of ellibs Texbooks has been renewed!

The user interface of ellibs text books has been renewed. Access to the books trough HELKA or the Search functionality on the Library’s website has not changed dramatically. The only difference is in the fact that you are asked to login as late as on the front page of the book.

There are better instructions and guidance for the users of different devices. (Instructions or Readers).

Problems in NELLI’s MetaSearch

THE PROBLEMS ARE OVER!

Currently you cannot  choose multiple databases and conduct simultaneous cross-searches to them. The problems are limited to MetaSearch only.  Otherwise NELLI is functioning normally. You can, for instance, conduct Article Searches and QuickSearches.

A service break of a few hours is needed to fix the problems. The planned time for the break is next Sunday.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
