The Hulbert Taft, Jr. Library


Honors American Government & Politics: Landmark Legislation Research Paper: 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.

  • If you are working off-campus you will need to sign in to library databases via EZ Proxy.
  • This only needs to be done once per session, and will give you access to all the electronic resources and databases you would typically have while on-campus at Taft.
  • See the graphic below for a reminder of how to log-in:
