Robertson Library: Login required to access online resources

Posting Date(s)

Beginning at 9:00 am on Monday, February 2 and until further notice, anyone accessing electronic resources (e-journals, e-books, databases, etc.) subscribed to by the Robertson Library will be prompted to enter their 糖心vlog传媒 username and password, even when connected to a 糖心vlog传媒 computer network. Logging in with 糖心vlog传媒 credentials is a long-standing requirement for accessing Library e-resources from off-campus, but not on 糖心vlog传媒 computing networks.

You can fix those URLs using our .

If you encounter any difficulties accessing Library e-resources during this EZproxy reconfiguration, or have questions about it, please . For information about the broader 糖心vlog传媒 IP initiative, please contact Graham Nixon, Manager, Infrastructure and Technology, ITSS. For updates see .
