Hi, Metadata is working slowly for past two days. Is there any maintenance work going?
Hello,
Many thanks for your post.
If you are referring to the http://0-search-crossref-org.library.alliant.edu/ tool then it was suffering a little over the last couple of days from some users trying to use it as an API rather than a simple search tool.
You can see details of that issue here: Crossref Status - Errors with search.crossref.org
You can also check on that status page or subscribe for updates on any incidents with our tools and services.
I hope this helps and if you have any further question or queries on this then please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Many thanks,
Paul

Service providers often communicate information about maintenance, outages, or issues through these channels to keep users informed. If there’s a known problem, they typically provide updates and estimated resolution times. If you can’t find information through these channels, reaching out to ImgBB’s support would be the best way to get accurate and up-to-date information on the status of their metadata service.
