I know Open Access Helper is small fish compared to the big players, but maybe we can work together to keep it growing?

Thank you @Telemetry_Deck for helping me preserve my users privacy, while showing me useful data!

Hello @OfficialEVC - one of your students contacted me recently and now Open Access Helper (https://t.co/2jb5UlAXBb) supports your library users with easy access to electronic resources on iPhone, iPad, macOS and anywhere, where Chrome & Firefox will run.

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

Hello @BibliotheekUvA - one of your users contacted me earlier in the week and now Open Access Helper (https://t.co/2jb5UlAXBb) supports your users on iPhone, iPad, macOS and of course anywhere where Chrome, Edge & Firefox will run! It’s free and will hopefully be enjoyed!

@aarontay wrote a lovely summary on two new Browser Extensions - EBSCOhost Passport https://t.co/iYslHEIrpj and GetFTR https://t.co/UkShpnCAud

I am obviously biased, but thanks Aaron for keeping us all honest :)

Did you know that Open Access Helper 2023.9 is now available? Have you already checked out the awesome integration with @ebsco’s EBSCOhost Entitlement API? This let’s you tap into your EBSCOhost subscriptions plus your HLM holdings on your mobile and desktop! #openapis

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

@umu_library Simply contact me at [email protected] :) I’ll be delighted to try my best. If you have a proxy prefix that would be a good start!

Hello Librarians!

Did you know that Open Access Helper can do more than "just" find Open Access?

It can assist your users with remote access (EZProxy / OpenAthens) and even connect to your Link Resolver!

It's free, so do contact me to set things up: https://t.co/QMSRx0mmwp

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

And with https://t.co/2jb5UlAXBb you can get this awesomeness in #firefox and #safari on #macos, #ipados and #ios as well :) plus Core Recommendations when there is no Open Access!

[CORE @oacore]

Trying to do research?

Hitting publishers' paywalls?

CORE Discovery is a completely FREE plugin for Chrome that can help you find #OpenAccess versions of paywalled papers.

iCloud+ Private Relay might affect access to IP authenticated library resources - learn more at https://t.co/v310WUEult

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

Apple bietet Kunden von iCloud mit Private-Relay eine Möglichkeit die eigene Privatsphäre zu schützen. Das System zeigt beim Zugriff eine IP Adresse, die nicht zum Rechner gehört. Das kann den Zugriff auf Angebote der Bibliothek stören. Mehr Infos unter:

Wussten Sie schon, dass Open Access Helper seit kurzem Bibliotheken noch besser unterstützen kann? Besuchen Sie https://t.co/xy4u2zpW1d um über die neusten Updates informiert zu werden!

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

Sometimes there is no open access copy, but your library still has a subscription. I still want to help you and that’s why Open Access Helper Version 2023.8 now supports the EBSCOhost Entitlement API.

If you are a librarian and you want to set it up, please contact me.

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

Version 2023.8 of Open Access Helper now also lets libraries take control over some translations. You’ll need to make sure to select your library in the settings and your library needs to work with me… but then you’ll see terminology that is hopefully more familiar!

[OAHelper @OaHelper]

Version 2023.8 of Open Access Helper is rolling out to a browser near you. Green open access or just at the open access location? The color of the badge caused confusion, but that is no more!

The icon stays orange & gets a different badge with a check-mark - hope you like it!
