Wireless & Off-Campus Access
Follow the links below to enable SciFinder access on campus using your laptop, or off-campus access using the proxy or VPN.
- ProxyMake a simple change to your web browser settings to enable off-campus access for most of our databases and all e-journals and e-books.
- VPN (AnyConnect Client - select Conventional Download) Download VPN software on your computer to get off-campus access for everything you'd get using the proxy. If you're having problems with proxy, VPN is a good alternative. When connecting, select the 'althruucsd' setting.
