This one ? (The other is Harvard University Anthropological Literature Library and seems to work fine)
Harvard University (Cambridge, MA) (Harvard)
I think LT has the connection info from here:
https://wiki.harvard.edu/confluence/display/LibraryStaffDoc/Z39.50+access+to+Alm...
but yes, it seems to fail.
ETA: First reported here: https://www.librarything.com/topic/342424

>2 bnielsen: Yes, that one. Thanks for linking to the original thread, slipped my mind when I posted

I've dropped an email to their helpdesk asking if it is intended. I've also send them a link to this page.
Hopefully it is just a glitch and they can restart the service or boot the server/firewall/whatever :-)

I tested from MPOW and the z39.50 connection is working fine.
Testing from the edit library sources page works, as well.

>5 lesmel: Strange, I just tried again various searches and they all still return failed search
Edit: Just to make sure Harvard University (Cambridge, MA), not the Anthropological one

>6 SandraArdnas: Yep. The Anthro library isn't one of the connections my workplace library has configured. When I search the word zombies via my workplace library, I get 1087 hits. Using the add/edit page for library sources here at LT, I get a successful search. It's not until using the add books search that it fails.

>7 lesmel: I don't think I've seen that combination before (works from the add/edit page when testing, but not from add books). ccatalfo should take a look. I've sent him a message pointing to this thread.

Thanks for looking into this.
It looks as if the z39.50 password had changed - and although i tried updating it from the Edit Datasources page, it doesn't seem to have made it to overcat itself.
I manually updated it in the database and it is working now.
I'll investigate why the Edit Datasources pw update did not get through.
