I just tried logging in here from home...didn't work. Here's what happened. After launching the database from the Information Resources page, getting past the EZ Proxy authentication page, and selecting one of the WRDS databases (such as CRSP), I get to the search screen. Once I try to submit a search (you click the "Submit Request" button at the bottom of the page), a new window opens on my computer asking me for a username and password (normally, this new window is the one that contains the data from your search query). We shouldn't be seeing this user name/password page, just the results of the search.
If you are a staff member of the library and you work at the reference desk, you are likely already signed up as an author on this blog and should receive emails automatically with every new post as they are published. Please be aware that if you receive a post via email and you reply to it, it won't be visible on the blog itself. If you'd like to reply to a post, please add a comment to the post itself.

As of May 4, remote access is still down.
