Me: how2 use library access to O'Reilly again? this is what happened
Librarian: oh, it's changed to something new-stupid from the old-stupid, it will fill in a code apparently?
Me: oh. yes, some gibberish appeared in a field that said "enter your institutional email address" so I deleted it and put in my address and it barfed, but I tried again and left the code and it worked
Librarian: huh, well, if you did that so will others, so I'm going to try adding a note to each of our ORA holdings
Librarians are awesome
