SpringerLink migration to new platform

SpringerLink has moved to a new and improved platform that is optimized for most mobile devices.

Springer will redirect all users to the new SpringerLink platform at link.springer.com, regardless of where you access from, or whether you use an old Springer url.  Individual accounts, however, will not be migrated.  Individual users will need to go to link.springer.com and set up a new profile/account.

Full text for all of The TMC Library's subscribed Springer content should now be accessible on the new platform.  If you experience any technical difficulties, or have any questions, please contact Joanne Romano, Licensing and Serials Librarian, at joanne.romano@exch.library.tmc.edu.
