How
to access the library's databases from off-campus
To access
the library's databases from off-campus, use the WebVPN service.
This service is only available to Elon University students, faculty,
and staff.
1. Browse
to https://webvpn.elon.edu/
2. Click Yes
if prompted about a security certificate.
3. Enter your
username and password (same as Elon email username and password).
4. Click OK
when a message appears indicating that usage is restricted to
Elon faculty, staff, and students.
5. In the
field to the right of the prompt "Enter Web Address
(URL)", type the web address you want and click
the Go button. Enter http://www.elon.edu/library and click Go.
6. In order
to reach the library's databases, click on the Databases
link.
7. To reach
other webpages, use the toolbar at the top right of the page (Click
the icon for Show Toolbar). If the Floating Toolbar does not open,
click the link to open it. Or, if you use the Address bar to type
in a URL, make sure you leave the https://webvpn.elon.edu/ address
to the left of whatever URL you type.
IMPORTANT:
Please LOG OUT when you're done. Click the X in the VPN Floating
Toolbar to log out; just closing the browser does NOT log you
out!
If you would
like to only access the NC LIVE databases without setting up a
VPN client, please call Belk Library's Information Desk at 278-6599
for more information.
