Using RefWorks in WorldCat Local off campus.

You may have noticed that RefWorks does not work correctly in WorldCat Local from off campus. People commonly get the following error: "Import aborted, File not found - 0 references imported"
It works correctly from on campus.

So, you can fix this by logging into  Ezproxy in WorldCat Local when you are off campus.  RefWorks will work correctly If you do.

OCLC, who own WorldCat Local, is looking into the problem.

WorldCat Local launched at the Library

The Library has a new interface for searching Novanet. It is called WorldCat Local.


WorldCat Local searches Novanet and libraries worldwide in a single search. AST's materials will always display first, making our materials easier to find. It also allows you to request materials from other libraries by  Novanet Express and Interlibrary Loans.

You can still search Novanet using the old interface, but we think you will like this new improved service more.

WorldCat Local also searches for journal articles in such databases as JSTOR, ArticleFirst, British Library Serials, ERIC, and Medline. You can find more theologically oriented databases in our list of research databases.

For more information, see our website at www.astheology.ns.ca/library/ or pick up a brochure at our Library Services Desk.
