What is EZproxy?
EZproxy is a web proxy server that enables authorized users (students, faculty, and staff) to remotely access the university's electronic resources from anywhere in the world. With EZproxy, you can access these resources just as you would on-campus, ensuring that you have the information you need at your fingertips, whether you're studying at home, conducting research in a coffee shop, or traveling abroad.
Why use EZproxy?
Owing to licensing deals with publishers and content providers, a considerable number of the university's electronic resources are limited to on-campus usage. EZproxy permits off-campus access to these resources by validating your university credentials and giving the impression that your request is originating from an on-campus IP address.
