We are currently experiencing access problems with Nature.

If you are trying to link to a Nature article via Summon, or to a journal on this platform you have found via the E-journals Finder, you may find that you are unable to gain access even after you have logged in.

Access is still available

This problem affects off-campus access only – on-campus access is unaffected. We are working to fix the problem as quickly as possible, but in the meantime you can still access the content you need on Nature from off-campus.

Please locate articles in the usual way, either by using Summon or the E-Journals Finder. You will see an option to subscribe to the journal you are accessing underneath the abstract of the article. Please click the ‘Login via Shibboleth’ link underneath this, and search for ‘University of Reading’. Once you have clicked on our institution, you should be able to login with your usual username and password and gain access.

We are working with our supplier to fix this, and will post an update once access is working normally.

If you have tried the method above and are still unable to gain access to content, please submit an E-resources problem report form and we will investigate the issue for you.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
