Searching the National Library of Medicine catalog via external search resources

Question

Searching external resources using NLM LocatorPlus (z39 gateway - OPAC) returns an error: "An error has occurred, please try again later and contact the system administrator."

How can the connection be restored?

Answer

Searching NLM's catalog via Z39.50 now uses the Alma platform. Updated connection information is included in a new External Search Resource: NLM (Alma)

Please configure the NLM (Alma) search resource to continue searching the NLM catalog.
