Login to Ellibs now via Haka authentication

As of Tuesday 2nd of October, to borrow Ellibs e-books you only need to log in to the service with your personal University of Eastern Finland user account (Haka login). You no longer need a separate Ellibs account. Despite the change, books currently on loan remain so until the end of the loan period. However, old Ellibs accounts, information on previous loans and browsing history are no longer available. In order to read most of the e-books you are still required to install Adobe Digital Editions or Bluefire Reader software on your device.

When you log in to Ellibs for the first time using the Haka authentication, the service will request your permission to store the user ID. After you grant permission, you will be directed to the user authentication site and after that redirected back to Ellibs.

Impact factor, H-index, Jufo…. Do you use these? Do you need information about them?

The library assesses the use of research and publishing activity indicators and the need for training at the University of Eastern Finland and the Kuopio University Hospital.

Reply anonymously to this short questionnaire, which we hope to experience with students, teachers, researchers, professors and other staff (even if you do not need these indicators in your studies or work!).

The questionnaire is open 1.10. – 12.10.2018. The survey results are used to develop library web sites and services.
