Connecting from Home of Off-Campus
The Yale University Library provides remote access to databases,
electronic books and journals, and other electronic full-text information
resources. Access is restricted to students, faculty, staff and
affilitates of Yale University and the Yale-New Haven Medical Center.
Authorized users may reach these resources through the Yale VPN or by using one of the proxy servers
with their own Internet connection.

VPN (Virtual
Private Networking)
The VPN service encrypts all traffic
between your computer and the campus network, providing an
extra measure of security. It is also required for all wireless
connections in the Medical Center (including the School of Public
Health). It also allows for access to restricted library resources,
including electronic books and journals.
Medical Library Proxy
Server
While VPN (described above) is the preferred way of connecting to
restricted reousrces, the proxy server allows those affiliated with the Yale
School of Medicine, Yale School of Public Health, Yale School of Nursing
and Yale-New Haven Hospital to access restricted library
resources including electronic books, electronic journals and
databases from virtually any off-campus computer.
