ZZZZ - Off-Campus Access

Off-campus access

Off-campus access to Library materials is generally restricted to current Guilford students, faculty, and staff. If you are a current member of the community, you can access Library databases and electronic resources through our EZ Proxy server.

Please note: vendor-specific URLs (e.g. www.jstor.org) and bookmarks won't work from off-campus. You'll need to use the direct links from the Library's A-Z database list or use the tool below to create a permalink.

After you click on a database link from a library webpage from off-campus, you'll be prompted to login using your Guilford network username and password.

Note: This is the same username and password you use for logging into the campus wifi or any campus computer (i.e., your network password). Your username is the first part of your email address without the @guilford.edu. For example, if your email address is jdoe@guilford.edu then your username is jdoe.

Tip: If you need to reset your password please submit a ticket via the ITS ticket system or contact the ITS Help Desk at 336.316.2020.

Other notes

• You need to be disconnected from the VPN (Global Protect) in order to login to Library resources while off-campus.
• Some databases offer patrons the options to create a free account to save items. This is is optional and is separate from your campus and Library accounts. Any of these accounts would need to be set up separately. Please see our guide on finding and using ebooks for more information.
