What is happening to Wanfang databases?

Databases retirement have been postponed to seek additional clarification with the provider

ProQuest currently has title-level information for Wanfang databases from provider Wanfang Data Co,. Ltd. in the Knowledgebase. The provider no longer offers these collections and doesn't have the title lists to maintain them.

The hidden Wanfang databases to are no longer being updated. In order to maintain accurate and authoritative provider metadata (based on our Knowledgebase collection policy), the databases will be hidden in the Knowledgebase on March 24, 2021. Libraries that currently subscribe to these databases will continue to have access to them. However if your library is not already subscribed, you will not be able to view these databases in the Knowledgebase.
