What is OpenAthens?
With OpenAthens, members of the Bishop Eustace Preparatory School community can access licensed digital resources both on and off campus. It works behind the scenes to verify your Bishop Eustace login, giving you seamless access to the same academic materials you’d normally use while connected to the campus network.
Why use OpenAthens?
Because of publisher restrictions, online academic resources at Bishop Eustace Preparatory School often require users to be on the university network. OpenAthens bypasses that limitation by using your Bishop Eustace credentials to authenticate access—so whether you're on campus or not, your access stays the same.
What’s the difference between EZproxy, OpenAthens, and VPN?
EZproxy and VPNs have traditionally been used to simulate on-campus access by rerouting traffic through university IPs. OpenAthens represents a shift away from IP-based models by using a cloud-based authentication system that identifies users individually. This allows OpenAthens to be more flexible and scalable across platforms, and it often requires less maintenance for IT departments. VPNs remain useful for broader internal network access, but for licensed digital content, OpenAthens often provides a more streamlined experience.
