Solved: [Library Network] Access to American Chemical Society is rejected
Solved! (2023.12.15)
Kyoto University has been blocked from accessing content on the ACS Publications website due to an excessive download violation since 11:00 a.m. on December 7.
We are currently requesting ACS to remove blocking.
If you are unable to access ACS contents via the authentication system, please review the following PDF (campus only).

Publishers of e-journals and e-books are prohibited from accessing all pages, not only the full text, but also the table of contents and abstracts, with excessive frequency, thus overloading the servers.
If excessive access or large downloads are detected, penalties such as blocking access to e-journals from the entire university will be imposed by publisher.
Please read the "[Library Network] Conditions of Use and Licensing Restrictions for E-Resources" announced on December 1, and review the settings of your browser and reference management tool plug-ins.

Please note that in such cases, authors are required to pay the full amount of the APC to the transferring publisher (if you publish as a non-OA in a hybrid journal, you do not need to pay the APC).
