Re: Electronic Access to Haworth Press Journals Rose Marie Parsons 23 Jul 2008 13:46 UTC
Hello, I emailed Meg Walker at T&F and Bill Cohen at Haworth last week. I was pleased to receive a personal phone call from Meg and an email from Bill. I understand T&F is working to restore access to the Haworth journals, and I accept their assurances that resolution of the problems is a high priority.

Please be assured that Taylor & Francis Group is actively supporting the Haworth Press website for journals. A transition plan is in place which is available at www.informaworld.com/haworth. This plan will be updated with information regarding the transition over the coming months, and we will send regular communications to customers via email regarding the process. We plan to dual host for a period to allow customers time to update their catalogues, and to ensure the transition has minimal impact on library users. To that end we are also in touch with link resolver vendors to ensure their knowledgebases are appropriately updated. We are aware that the Haworth Press site at times runs very slowly and will continue to work to improve performance on the site in the interim. Anyone needing assistance with the haworthpress site can contact haworthpress@taylorandfrancis.com. We have extra staff allocated to help librarians with any issues. If you have any subscription related queries our customer service team are on hand to assist and can be contacted at tf.enquiries@informa.com. I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
