DISCOVER search box on lrweb is not working properly

We are having a problem today with the DISCOVER search box on our main web page.

However DISCOVER itself is up and running, to access it directly just go to https://lrweb.beds.ac.uk/discover

LRWEB problems - search box update

We are still having some issues with our website, LRWEB, following the recent system change. However, we are pleased to report that one of them is fixed - the search box on the front page now searches DISCOVER, as it is supposed to do. Please let us know about any other things you notice that are not working properly.

LRWEB problems - some links broken, and search box seaching library catalogue instead of DISCOVER

The university has been upgrading the system that delivers our webpages this week, and unfortunately we have discovered some of the functions on the library website (LRWEB) are now not working properly.

The search box that used to take you to a search of DISCOVER, is now taking you to a search of the library catalogue.

The difference is that the library catalogue just lists book and journal titles, it doesn't search articles for you the way DISCOVER does - so you won't see the same sorts of results. Also, the link https://lrweb.beds.ac.uk/discover, which we usually recommend for direct access to DISCOVER, is not redirecting properly and is taking you back to the LRWEB home page.

DISCOVER is still available, via the link we've used in this post, or alternatively by going to the library catalogue and clicking the Search with DISCOVER button.

There may also be other links which are not working as they should do. Please bear with us as we try to get this fixed as soon as possible.

DISCOVER search box working again

We have fixed the problem, you can now search DISCOVER direct from Lrweb!

Searching DISCOVER from Lrweb

We are having issues with the DISCOVER search box on Lrweb. DISCOVER is still working though if you follow the link rather than using the search box.
