Off-Campus Access to Library Resources

The OSU Library provides students, faculty, and staff with off-campus access to online journals and databases.

NOTE:

If you encounter databases or online journals that deny access we ask that you email Digital Library Services at lib-dls@okstate.edu with the name of the resource you were attempting to access and include the URL at the point that access was denied.

Known Issues

  1. Clicking on your browser's "Home" button will take you out of the off-campus access "loop". To reconnect, return to the Library's home page and click on Anywhere Library Access -> Connecting from Off-Campus. This will put you back into the "loop".
  2. In some cases, clicking on an "Exit" button of a particular database will also take you out of the "loop. Follow the instructions in #1 above.
  3. When you enter your Username/Password, the system does an automatic lookup to the campus computer directory. If this system is being heavily used your attempt to login may fail. Wait a short time and try again.

If you have questions about any of these issues, or if you experience other difficulties, please contact the Digital Library Services office at 405-744-9161 or 877-744-9161 (toll-free outside Stillwater). You may also email us at lib-dls@okstate.edu
