What is OpenAthens?
Think of OpenAthens as your digital key to Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU’s academic resources. It gives students, staff, and faculty secure, off-campus access to licensed databases, journals, and more—no special software or campus connection required. Just log in with your San Pablo CEU credentials, and you're ready to go.
Why use OpenAthens?
Because of publisher restrictions, online academic resources at Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU often require users to be on the university network. OpenAthens bypasses that limitation by using your San Pablo CEU 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, OpenAthens, and VPNs all offer ways to access restricted academic resources off-campus, but they work in very different ways. EZproxy uses IP-based authentication, rerouting your connection so it appears as though you're on the university network. OpenAthens, on the other hand, uses identity-based authentication—meaning you log in once with your institutional credentials, and it grants access based on who you are, not where you're connecting from. VPNs simulate a campus environment by creating a secure tunnel to the university’s internal network, which can be more resource-intensive and less user-friendly.
