Off-Campus Access

How to access ebooks, databases, and help from a librarian.

Accessing Databases

To access any of OWU's subscription databases, on campus or off campus, you will be prompted to login with your OWU credentials. 

This is the same login you use to access Blackboard and your OWU email.

Access Outside of the United States

For those not in the United States, you will need to install and login to the OWU Virtual Public Network (VPN) before attempting to access OWU ebooks, articles, and other subscription online resources.

All issues regarding VPN installation and use should addressed with OWU Information Services.
