JSTOR access problems

There are currently problems accessing JSTOR via UK Access Management Federation, with users getting error messages saying they are not granted access.


We have contacted JSTOR support, who are trying to solve this problem.

You can also log in using another method into JSTOR, using the link: http://0-www.jstor.org.brum.beds.ac.uk/ and your student number/UoB password. (Members of staff will need to use their barcode as their username, which starts with an x).

This alternative method works with Firefox and Microsoft Edge browsers, but may not work if you are using a Chrome browser.
