Full Text Finder down

UPDATE: The Full Text Finder is now working. 9/18/20 5:15 PM

The Pumerantz Library's full text finder button (  ) is currently not working.  The vendor is aware of the problem and working on a fix.  

As a workaround, you can look up the journal name on our ejournal search page to see if we have access.
