The Hulbert Taft, Jr. Library

Public Speaking: Final Project: Off-Campus Access to Library Resources

To use the library's electronic resources when you're away from campus, click on the database link in your course guide or on the A-Z databases list page.

Those links will ensure that you can login via EZ Proxy! For a full explanation of how EZ Proxy works, watch the video below.
