Issues with linking to newspaper articles in Nexis UK

We are aware of some issues with links to newspaper articles held on the Nexis UK database. Following a platform change direct links to articles are no longer working – we are working on a solution to this problem

 

To find your article please follow these steps:

- Open Nexis UK (via Athens) (for best results use Google Chrome or Firefox browsers). 

- Start typing ‘Open University’ in the box under ‘Find your organisation’.

- Select ‘Open University’.

- Sign in with your normal OU computer name and password.

- Paste or type the name of your article into the main search bar and press the magnifying glass.

- Select your article from the results list.

 

We apologise for any inconvenience this issue causes our staff and students, please bear with us while we work with the platform supplier to find a solution.

 

UPDATE 22nd October 2019

This issue has mainly been resolved and the majority of links to Nexis content are now working. All remaining link issues will be resolved by Friday 25th October 2019.
