[Solved] Partial Malfunction of Search Services

 On 2026-06-17 (485 reads)

This issue has been resolved. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. (2026.6.17)


Due to a current access failure with 360 Link/Core, the following search services are temporarily unavailable:

The E-Journal and E-Book List
Links via the "eJournal" button in KULINE search results

The provider is currently working to resolve the issue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience while the system is being restored.

[Supplementary Information]
Although access via the "eJournal" button in KULINE search results is currently unavailable, this does not mean there is an error with the journals themselves. You can still access and view articles by navigating to the publisher's page via Google or other article search engines and using your bookmarklet.
