What is OpenAthens?
Whether you're studying from home or working abroad, OpenAthens ensures that you can still reach London Business School Publishing’s full range of electronic resources. By signing in with your London Business School account, you get the same access as you would on campus—fast, secure, and hassle-free.
Why use OpenAthens?
Some of London Business School Publishing’s most valuable digital resources are only available to users on the campus network. OpenAthens makes those resources available off-campus too—just sign in with your London Business School credentials, and you’ll be recognized as an authorized user no matter where you are.
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.
