The username and password you've entered are not current/correct

Solution

Retry, please contact the IThelpdesk if you are certain you entering the right details

For 'Unauthorised access'

Cause

This can happen when you access a link with a session variable in it that has expired. Typically this happens when you have copied the URL for an eResource and used it again at a later time. It can also happen when you use the back button or access a URL from your browser's history that accesses a stale cookie.

Solution

Most cases are resolved by clearing cookies (Chrome is particularly susceptible to this).

Use a stable linking solution (like One Search's Permalinks) or return to the resource platform's home page and search for the item.
