News release
From the University Library
18 September 2007
Alternative to Athens for access to Library resources
By the start of the autumn term you will not need to use your Athens account to access databases or e-journals from the Library's website. Instead, you can simply use your University/ISS username and password to get access.
There is no difference in on or off-campus access. This simplification reduces the number of passwords you will need to remember!
If you have already registered for an Athens account, and you would prefer to continue using it, you may do so until June 2008.
- More information about accessing resources with your University login and password.
- Information from ISS about how to register for an ISS username and password.
- The ISS Subscribe website to register for, and manage, your ISS account.
