+===== Boilerplate for message to patrons about Text & Data Mining violations =====
+Hi [name],
+The vendor has suspended our connection to this resource due to excessive use and suspected text & data mining activity. Our license terms with the vendor unfortunately do not allow for text and data mining, and the pattern of your recent use of the database suggests this kind of activity. Please do not perform text and data mining research with [database].
+We are working with the vendor and campus IT to resolve the issue. If you would like to explore ways to use the Libraries' resources to accomplish your research goals within the bounds of our contractual obligations with our resource vendors, please [[https://www.library.umass.edu/about-the-libraries/liaisons/|contact your department's liaison librarian]]. And please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.
+Thanks, [your name & title]
