ProQuest Downtime on Saturday, 3/9.

This Saturday (March 9th) ProQuest will be performing maintenance on their server. Because of this, a six (6) hour downtime will take place from Saturday, March 9, 2012, at 7:00pm PT to Sunday, March 10, 2013 at 1:00am PT.

During this time all databases on the ProQuest platform will be unavailable. If you are looking to use a general/multidisciplinary database in lieu of ProQuest, try using the EBSCOHost database. You can find this database under the Broad Topics/General Database option in the Subject Area/Category drop-down box.  If you are doing subject specific research, select your area from that list and chose an alternative database.

As always, you can get to our databases by going to http://library.hiu.edu > Search Tools > Research Databases.

Feel free to contact us at http://libanswers.hiu.edu if you have any questions!
