How can I search the library databases for journal and newspaper articles from off campus?
Many electronic journals and databases are licensed by the University Library, and only UCSC students, faculty, and staff are allowed to access them from off-campus. Anyone can access the resources in the library buildings. There are three ways to connect to these resources: 1. Use on-campus computers. All campus buildings including the libraries, offices, classrooms, dorms, and ResNet have full access to licensed online resources. 2. Off-campus patrons using a commercial internet service provider (such as Comcast or CRUZIO) will use Off-Campus Access (OCA). This service will ask you to login with your library card number the first time you click on a link for a licensed resource. You’ll remain authenticated until you quit your browser. For further information, see the Off-Campus FAQ or send us a question using the form above. To go directly to the OCA login page: http://oca.ucsc.edu 3. Using a modem, dial-up the campus modem pool and login using the username and password from your UCS
