Medical library offers one-step login for off-campus users
The Cushing/Whitney Medical Library offers EZproxy, a one-step login tool that uses Epic credentials for off-campus access to library resources. Off-campus users can select a resource at the Yale medical library, and enter their Epic credentials when prompted. Alternatively, users can add this prefix in front of a URL to see if they have access:
https://yale.idm.oclc.org/login?URL=
For example:
https://yale.idm.oclc.org/login?URL=https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama
Due to tightened Yale New Haven Hospital network security measures, users might have difficulty accessing certain journal articles while in the hospital; but they can use EZproxy to access articles from home. Users who see a login error but believe they should have access should contact the Yale New Haven Health ITS Service Desk: 203-688-4357. For any other issues accessing library resources on or off campus, email [email protected]
