Changes to remote access to electronic resources

This applies to holders of full Oxford University cards only.

The old Athens system of remote access is no longer available.

You can now access electronic resources (including electronic journals) remotely using your Single Sign On account. There is a new interface to electronic resources called OxLIP+ which you you can access at
http://oxlip-plus.ouls.ox.ac.uk/, or follow the link from 'old' OxLIP. If you log in to OxLIP + using your SSO, you will be able access almost all resources - this gives the functionality of the VPN but you do not need to install software or register for additional passwords.

'Old' OxLIP will continue to be available and you will be able to connect to some resources using SSO. If you currently use the VPN, you can continue to do so if you wish.

JSTOR remote access - update

The problems experienced with this last week have now been solved. You can now access JSTOR remotely using either an Athens password if you have one or your Single Sign On/Oxford username (or of course using the VPN).

This applies to Oxford University card holders only
