Question: I have always been able to access digital material from the Stanford Library site, like databases, ejournals, and online reference material. Now I can't. I am prompted for a login and password and it's not accepting my Stanford SuNet ID. Why can't I access electronic material anymore with my SuNet ID?

Answer:

If you have graduated, or have changed your affiliation with Stanford, your SuNet ID may no longer be valid. To test whether or not you're supposed to have access, use this AUTHENTICATION TEST.

If you're not authorized and you have questions follow the link you'll see to the page that explains our access policies. It has information about getting in touch with Privileges.

If you are authorized, follow the link you'll see to the instructions for remote access to electronic resources.
