Library news

ITS and the Library have implemented changes to the authentication for electronic resources. EZproxy links are no longer supported since 30^th November 2022 . EZproxy authentication has ceased linking to online resources.  

Academic staff – If you have links in your moodle shell for semester 1 still in the ezproxy format these will need to be updated to link successfully to eresources.  Library Course readings staff can assist with these changes please contact us for help

Any links containing EZproxy in the url (via Moodle, EndNote, browser bookmarks to favorite databases etc.) will require updating.

Any links that contain OpenAthens authentication will not require any changes. 

The Libguides A to Z list provides urls for individual databases in OpenAthens format.

How do I update EZproxy links? 

To update EZproxy you will need to generate new links which will utilise OpenAthens authentication. For further information click here
