IE9 and ProQuest and Web of Knowledge databases

There are some issues when refining search results on ProQuest and Web of Knowledge databases. Databases affected include:

ProQuest: ANZ NewsStand, Digital Dissertations, ERIC, LLBA, Sociological Abstracts, ASFA, Biological Sciences, Environment and Pollution, Meteorological and Astrophysical and other A&I databases

Web of Knowledge: BIOSIS Previews, Inspec, Zoological Record

The solution is to change IE9 to Compatibility Mode. This can be done by selection Compatibility View from the Tools drop down menu.

Phanh reports this is still a problem - 31/1/2012
