Thanks for this reminder, Liz.
It is outstanding that Britannica is providing IP authenticated routing so
that we can get this access directly to our students alongside the rest of
our databases. Individual student password access is a huge deterrent.
I only wish ProQuest would do the same!! (hint, hint to our reps out there)
