I t was recently announced that the library facilities on all the Ohio University campuses in Ohio are now available to our Hong Kong students via the internet. In addition, similar material which is in the collections of virtually every college or university in the State of Ohio is available via Ohiolink. Prior to the beginning of each term, we will forward the name, the student identification number or Social Security number, the student's home address, and e-mail address for each new registrant to the Alden Library staff. This will register each student as an Alden Library patron. Once this occurs, each student will be able to access the facilities.
Explicit instructions follow.
Each of the databases or resources indicates whether the resource is available to all remote users or what restrictions if any, are placed on it. Then click on the link on the left side of the page to connect to the database. The authentication system then will ask for the name of the institution with which you are affiliated. Your name and social security or student identification number will be requested. Submit this data and the system will indicate authentication for that resource and will take you to the search screen for the resources.
