How to Access Library Resources - Please Read

Although Athens authentication has not been needed to access most Library resources for some time, it is clear that many people have still been using that access route.

The recommended route for online students and staff to access the Library resources is via the University portal - just login to EZproxy with your Managed Windows Service (MWS) username and password when prompted. This gives you access to nearly all Library e-resources and from here you can access e-journals, e-books and databases, and also cross-search databases.

There are a few resources that we can't route through EZproxy and if you try to access one of those you will be taken automatically to the new UK Federation login screen where you login with your MWS username and password and gain access.

Please do get in contact if you have any questions.
