Remote Access to Library Electronic Resources

Due to licensing restrictions, remote access / off-campus access to some of the library's electronic resources is limited to current students, faculty and staff of New Jersey Institute of Technology. These restrictions prohibit us from offering remote access / off-campus to guest borrowers, including alumni. Authentication is required for remote access. If you do not have a NJIT University Computing ID (UCID), create one now.

Three options for authentication:

  1. EZproxy (recommended)
    It is the easiest and most reliable authentication method. UCID is required and status as current NJIT student, faculty and staff member
  2. VPN
    VPN is a client software you install on your PC. It allows you to use your own Internet Service Provider (ISP) to connect to the NJIT Network to access information that is normally restricted to campus use only. Click here for more information and to install the VPN client on your PC.
  3. Dial-up

If you need further assistance, you may call the NJIT Computing Services Department at 973-596-2900 or go to the NJIT helpdesk.
