Films on Demand remote/off-campus access workaround
SYMPTOM: Attempting to access Films on Demand from off campus using the link on the A-Z Database page leads to a separate Infobase/Films on Demand login page
- This is not supposed to happen
- After AccessRio authentication, users should gain immediate access without any additional steps
- AccessRio credentials will not work with Infobase/Films on Demand login
CAUSE: Currently unknown. Being investigated. (First became aware of issue 9/7/24.)
WORKAROUND/SOLUTION: Load/access Films on Demand twice using its access link on the A-Z Databases page:
- Go to the RHC Library's A-Z Databases page:
- LOAD ONCE — Find the entry for "Films on Demand" and click on its access link:
- LOAD AGAIN — After the Films on Demand site/page loads but doesn't lead straight in, click on the Films on Demand access link/url once again:
