Notas do Editor
There is sometimes confusion with passwords when trying to access electronic resources.Your password (sometimes called ATHENS) will only give you access to the resources which York St John has paid for. Don’t assume that your password is wrong if you go onto a journal website and can’t get an article. It’s probably because we haven’t got that journal in our subscriptions.
