THE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED issue preventing off-campus access to the Construction Information Service – off-campus access has now been resolved.
Off-campus access to the service is once again available via university username and password.

We are currently working with the technical team at LexisLibrary to try and restore access to the News and International Content sections of the platform, which have become unavailable since a recent upgrade.
Attempts to access these sections, either on or off campus, results in an error page.
A further update will follow once the issue is confirmed as resolved.
A scheduled system maintenance period for the Box of Broadcasts platform will begin Thursday 4 April 2019 between 07:00 and 09:00. The provider advises that the service should be considered ‘at risk’ during these times.
