Following a change in the subscription profile provided to Libraries and Learning Resources, off-campus access to isurv service (which was previously available by university username and password) has now been withdrawn from eSearch. Access to isurv is currently available on-campus only.
isurv – access restored
September 5 2009A technical issue that caused a temporary loss of access to the isurv service (from both on-campus and off-campus) has now been resolved. Access is direct on-campus and by university username and password from off-campus.
Access to isurv re-enabled
January 20 2009Access to the isurv service in eSearch, which had been temporarily unavailable, has now been re-enabled. Access remains direct on-campus, and by university username and password from off-campus (using Shibboleth/eZproxy).
As the nature of NTU’s subscription to the service has changed, the message which displays to a logged in NTU staff member or student has changed to the following: “Hello, RICS East region universities – you are signed in” (see illustration below). This message previously referred to ‘Nottingham Trent University’).

This change has been necessitated now that NTU’s subscription costs to the service are being met directly by RICS (as part of a wider agreement with other universities) and that LLR’s previous paid-for subscription has been suspended.
isurv – off-campus access now available
January 21 2008Access to the isurv service is now available off-campus via NTU domain, username and password. Links and prompts in eSearch have been updated accordingly.
isurv – new platform and authentication methods
January 11 2008The isurv service has migrated to a new, updated platform (which includes the 2008 edition of the ‘Red Book’), and links in eSearch have been updated accordingly. On-campus access to isurv (which was previously by specific username and password) is now direct; off-campus access (by NTU domain, username and password) will be available shortly. The previous entry for isurv on the ‘Other Passwords’ page is therefore now redundant and will be withdrawn shortly.
ISURV – new username and password
September 20 2007Access to the ISURV database now requires a new username and password, which is now ‘live’ on the ‘Other Passwords’ page.
ISURV password change
July 20 2007The password for the ISURV service has changed, and the Other Passwords page has been updated accordingly.
