Many publishers require authentication before using library resources. There are two methods of connecting,VPN or Proxy, listed below:
Off-Campus Access
UC has changed the VPN!
UC will replace Pulse Secure as UC's VPN client on March 1st 2019, and replace it with AnyConnect. AnyConnect will provide the same level of off-campus access to UC's network as Pulse Secure, while providing for greater security.
Both AnyConnect and Pulse Secure will work until March 1st. After March 1, only AnyConnect will work.
The following links will help you connect or download the new VPN:
