ACCESSING ONLINE LIBRARY RESOURCES
- From 10 August 2021, access to licensed online library resources (whether on or off campus) requires user authentication by logging in with a UC username + password and Duo Two Factor authorization.
This means: When you are accessing library resources via the catalog or website, you will be prompted to log in. You need to authenticate even if you have the VPN on. You no longer need to log in via the “Off Campus Access” button, and the “Off Campus Access” page has been eliminated.
More information on accessing online licensed library resources and help with troubleshooting problems is available at the Access Library Resources : FAQs. - Over the summer, the UC Libraries updated its proxy service. URLs for licensed online resources have been updated. If you try a link and it doesn’t work, scroll down to “Authentic/Proxy Link Troubleshooting.”
If you need to update or generate a link, use the proxy link generator or proxy link converter.
If you have any questions about accessing library resources, contact Dr Jenny Doctor, head of the CCM Library.
