How do I report problems?
The best way to report problems is to send email to mrlserials@cofc.edu. Please keep in mind that occasionally, due to problems with the Internet or the database supplier, databases will be unavailable. Also, several databases have restrictions as to how many users may access them at one time. Often trying again later will produce successful results.
