Hello all
A lot of students at the Ref Desk and in classes mention they can’t get the VPN or proxy to work. There is a third option that has been available for a few months, and the link to the information has been made more accessible from the Connecting from Home page. It is the ‘rewriting proxy’ which requires logging in with campus-wide login and pin, and then voila, you have access to databases, ejournals, and elink from off-campus. It is a slower connection than the VPN or proxy, so the VPN/proxy are still the best options, but for those that – for whatever reason – can’t use the VPN or proxy, the rewriting proxy provides very easy access.
