Remote Access to Databases

Accessing electronic resources (databases and electronic journals) from off-campus is relatively easy.  Remote access is available to currently enrolled MU students.  Access is authenticated by the user's username (myZou username and password). If you are trying to access from a work computer (especially in a school district), you may experience access problems related to the firewall installed on your network.  In these cases, you can try to download and install the Virtual Private Network client provided by MU. If this does not work, contact Rhonda Whithaus, Electronic Resources Coordinator, at 573-882-9164 or WhithausR@missouri.edu.  Additional information on accessing our electronic resources from off-campus can be found here.
