Linking To Online Content *Restored*

Friday Nov 6th 15:45

The libgate service has been restored and access to our resource has resumed as normal.
Once again, apologies for the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience.

We are currently experiencing problems with our libgate service, which is stopping links to online content via our catalogue and website
We're working on it as a high priority and hope to have the problem fixed soon.

Apologies for the disruption this is causing.

As a temporary workaround, you can try the following steps [*only if you are on campus*]:

  • 1. On the library catalogue, find the resource you're looking for, and click on the link e.g. ScienceDirect
  • 2. If you look at the URL in the address bar, you'll see it looks something like this: http://libgate.library.nuigalway.ie/login?url=http://www.sciencedirect.com
  • 3. Delete the first part of the URL: http://libgate.library.nuigalway.ie/login?url=
  • 4. You will be left with a direct URL to the resource you're looking for. Press enter and you'll be brought through to the resource.
