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.

Trouble-shooting

If you encounter any problems with your ISS/University username and password, please contact ServiceLine:

If you have any other problems, or questions regarding the move away from Athens authentication, please contact:
