Off-campus access to many resources is limited to current UCB faculty, staff and students. To access these resources from off-campus, use either the Library Proxy Server Service or the campus VPN (Virtual Private Network).
The proxy server is a computer on campus that will route your requests for licensed resources after authenticating you as a Berkeley student, faculty or staff member. You must configure your web browser to use it. Instructions, FAQs, and help are available from the proxy server page.
The VPN is a software program that will establish a "tunnel" to our campus network, allowing you to access a broader variety of licensed resources.
