About the Library: Off-Campus Access to Library Resources |
Most Schaffer Library online resources, including subscription databases, reference materials, and e-journals, are available off-campus to faculty, staff, and registered students. A new service called VPN has been installed and replaces the Union College Proxy server. A VPN account is required for access to many of the above resources, and can be obtained at the Information Technology Services (ITS) office during regular hours of operation. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network, and it is used to create a secure means of access for off-campus users (e.g. from your home computer). With the VPN you can access network resources such as Schaffer Library's Databases & Indexes page, the Union FTP server, and other campus servers. You can also map drives to acad-users and other servers on campus. To get a VPN account, stop by ITS and fill an application for an off-campus account. More info: VPN FAQ
