When using the GlobalProtect VPN system, UNL library users will need to take additional steps to access e-journals and other licensed online resources.
There are three ways to access UNL Libraries online resources from off-campus.
Option 1: Use the UNL Libraries catalog or A-Z list.
You can search the catalog for a particular journal, ebook, or article title.
You can use the A-Z list to access resources by database or publisher platform.
Option 2: Rewrite the link to include UNL’s proxy prefix.
This will provide full-text access to materials the UNL Libraries subscribe to.
There are two ways to do this:
- In your browser's URL/search bar, manually add https://libproxy.unl.edu/login?url= at the start of the link you are trying to access. (for example, https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/10.1080/00094056.2005.10522259 becomes https://libproxy.unl.edu/login?url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/10.1080/00094056.2005.10522259)
- Install the UNL proxy bookmarklet, which will rewrite links for you with a single click.
Option 3: Install the LibKey Nomad browser extension.
Once you set up the app on your browser, it will show an icon whenever full-text access to an item is available through the UNL Libraries.
