Problems with the Proquest database on UHNM network

The Proquest database provides NHS athens users with access to ejournals and articles on the Medline and PsychInfo databases.

We are currently experiencing problems using this database on the UHNM network - the login process is resulting in an error "Blocked request: Policy violation". We have logged the problem with IT and they are working towards fixing it.

In the meantime if you experience this problem unfortunately the only solution is to use a non-UHNM networked PC. NHS staff who are members of the library can request walk-in access to the Keele network - come to the library counter with your Health Library card.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.
