Off-Campus/Database Access

If you're not on-campus, but need to use the UTEP Library's electronic resources, you'll need to authenticate your identity.

You have these options:

1. Establish a Library PIN- note that this method will require you to authenticate every time you access a protected resource (i.e., databases).

See tutorial How to Create or Recover a Library Pin

2. Connect to UTEP's VPN- this will allow you to operate as if you were on-campus and on UTEP's hardwired network.

See tutorial UTEP VPN for Windows  or  UTEP VPN for Macs
