Access to McGill Library e-resources to cease for all ineligible McGill accounts

In July 2013, in an effort to comply with McGill University Library's licensing agreements for electronic content, the McGill Library began a process of analyzing McGill user and affiliated accounts to ensure that only eligible users were able to access the Library’s e-resources. This work has now been completed.

As of Monday, January 12, 2015, all ineligible account holders will no longer be able to access e-resources from off-campus locations.

McGill students, faculty, staff or other authorized users continue to have access to the full range of McGill Library e-resources. For more information, see: Accessing online resources.

Affiliate hospitals: People working in affiliate hospitals will only have access to McGill Library e-resources if they are individually affiliated with McGill University as a faculty or staff member, student, or medical resident. See: Affiliated hospital access to McGill e-resources.

WebVPN: Access to e-resources via Web VPN for all users will also cease on January 12, 2015. Access to e-resources through the primary McGill VPN will continue for authorized users.

If you have any questions regarding your access to e-resources, please contact your branch library.
