Tips for accessing e-journals

Currently, most publishers control access to licenced online offers by checking the IP address of the computer which is being used. If you are using a computer within the Bamberg University network or a comparable access from an external one, you will generally only need to click on the magazine title in the electronic magazine library (EZB) to access it.

If the publisher requires a password that usually means that the Bamberg University Library does not have a licence for such data. However, only a select few licences require require passwords (see below). If you see a notification to that effect in the EZB, you will find the passwords at this link here.

Please note that for many magazines there are multiple entries in the EZB if different providers cover different periods of time.
