Off-Campus access to Keele University eResources

Here is a quick reminder of how to access the Keele University databases, ejournals and articles when you are off-campus.

To access our ejournals for articles
When you search the Keele A-Z list of journals for a journal title you will be given a link to the publisher’s site for the journal page. The publisher sites are all different but you need to login to be able to access the full-text. Look for a login link to the Shibboleth login or Institutional login, then select Keele University. You will be presented with a login screen where you can enter your Keele computer username and password.
Here is an example of how to login to a journal.

To access our databases to search for articles
Use the links to the databases on your subject page: medicine, midwifery or nursing. These links take you directly to the correct login screen. You will need to enter your Keele computer username and password.
You can find an example of how to do this in the video below:
