The Graduate Center, CUNY

Remote Access to Library Materials

From Support Wiki

Off campus access to most of the library's subscription databases is available through the use of your Graduate Center Computing Account. The only exception is the library's subscription to Sci Finder Scholar.

The Graduate Center Computing Account provides GC Faculty, Staff, and Students access to the the library's subscription databases through the library 's proxy server. If you attempt access any subscription databases listed on the library's website off-campus you will be prompted for your Graduate Center Computing Account information before using the database.

If you do not have a valid Graduate Center computing account you will be unable to utilize the proxy server. Please contact the Information Technology Help Desk if you have problems with your Graduate Center computing account.
