Remote Access to Library Resources

When accessing the Library's website from outside the Weill Cornell network, users will see the message "You are connected from outside the Weill Cornell Medical College network" below the search panel on the library's homepage.  Authorized users will need to authenticate using EZproxy to access library resouces.

EZproxy

EZproxy is a service that allows Weill Cornell's current faculty, students, staff and NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell's residents and fellows to remotely access the library's subscribed (paid) electronic content such as e-journals, e-books, and other e-resources while off-campus.

How to use: Go directly to the library's website without logging into EZproxy. When you click on a library resource such as UpToDate that requires EZproxy, you will be prompted to select Weill Cornell or NYP* then login with your credentials. Your session will remain active for two hours within the same browser and you will be able to switch to and from one electronic resource to another without having to re-authenticate. You can log out of EZproxy by quitting your browser. For additional information and questions, visit How to use EZproxy and the EZproxy FAQ page. 

NYP*: Access is restricted to residents and fellows.
