Off-Campus Access / Proxy Configuration

Many library databases allow off campus access to MMA students, faculty and staff. 

Access requires configuration of your internet browser--please see below. 

After you configure your browser and click on the link to the database of your choice from the Library's list of databases, you will be asked to supply your name and the six digit barcode number on the back of your MMA ID/library card.  Once validated, you will be able to use the database as you would on campus.

If you are denied access after completing these steps, please contact us.

Please note: it is often necessary to clear your browser cache and/or start a new internet session for new settings to take effect.
