Is there another way that I can access library databases from off campus when there is an outage?
Having trouble accessing library databases from off campus? The issue may lie with the database provider, our proxy server, our authentication system, or because of another technical issue.
Should the problem lie with our proxy server, users are still able to access databases by using VLAB, Brockport’s virtual computer lab. A proxy server allows students, faculty, and staff to access library resources when connecting from off campus.
Once the VLAB program is installed, you can log in using your Brockport NetID. Then, you can open an internet browser and access the library’s website and all of our databases.
See links below for IT Instructions for downloading and installing VLAB.
