Introducing OpenAthens |
The Library has switched from its previous remote access system for e-resources ("EZ Proxy") to a new and better system called OpenAthens.
OpenAthens became available December 2021, and EZ Proxy was retired in April 2022.
OpenAthens has been configured to work with Microsoft Azure Authentication, which means most staff (with exceptions for some such as those with @un.org emails like UNHCR & ILC colleagues) have automatic access!
Azure Authentication is the same system you use when signing into MS Outlook in a web browser.
When signing into OpenAthens you will be re-directed to Azure sign in.
There are some access issues with some Oxford resources. These issues are on the vendor side.
We are working with the vendor to resolve the issues as quickly as possible.
If you notice any issues, then please let us know here: https://unog.libwizard.com/f/OpenAthens_Issues
We will attempt to provide a workaround for any issues so that you can have access to the content in the meantime.
Note:
We are currently experiencing some issues with Oxford Premium HeinOnline resources.
We apologise, and assure you that we are working with the vendor to resolve such as quickly as possible.
