Error during command authentication.
Error - unable to initiate communication with LISTSERV (errno=10061, phase=CONNECT, target=127.0.0.1:2306). The server is probably not started.
It looks like ARTstor is requiring
new users to identify what role they have at our institutions when they register (e.g. graduate student). I’m guessing the change is in order to gather user stats, but I’m not sure this is the best way to go about that.

On August 19 there was an email from ARTstor called “ARTstor Digital Library Updates.” Halfway through the message is the statement
“Beginning August 22, users will be prompted to register to download images. Registrations made at public libraries will expire at the end of the day.”
I too wonder what prompted the change.

Subject: [ARLIS-L] ARTstor change of terms
ARTstor altered its usage policy yesterday. People can no longer download an image without logging into a personal ARTstor account even if they are inside the IP range of the
subscribing institution. This is a really unfortunate development as I’m afraid that students will see the need to log in as a hassle or even a violation of privacy.
Did anyone out there receive any notification about the change of terms? No one at MassArt did and we only found out when we called them. I wonder what prompted this change.
