How do I access electronic resources from off campus?

• Navigate the library web site as your normally would.
• When you click on a licensed resource, a new page will open prompting you for a user ID and password. You do not need to look for this form, it will appear when credentials are needed.
• Once you enter the proper credentials, the web site will take you to the selected library resource.
• Watch this quick tutorial for additional instruction.
