Q. Is there a limit to how much I can download from Library databases?

If you find that you are locked out from downloading, it's generally because the Library's EZproxy has limits in place.

Some subscription databases may be shut down by the vendors if they detect what they consider abusive downloading. The EZproxy limit is in place to keep this from happening.  

Deactivated accounts will automatically reset in one hour.  

See the link below about other activities besides downloading that may contribute to being temporarily "locked out."
