RE: VPN and Electronic Licenses

VPNs generally give access to all campus resources, including the Library.  
For selective access you would need a product like Ezproxy, that requires
you to specify the resources as well as the access.

Subject: VPN and Electronic Licenses


I was hoping to get some input on how others use a VPN (Virtual Personal
Network) and their electronic journal licenses.  I have reviewed most of
our licenses and remote access seems to be allowed through a secure server
which I would consider our VPN. However how do you handle access to
journals that do not make mention of remote access or state that remote
access is only available to individual subscribers.  Any suggestions would
be appreciated and ideas on blocking access to certain titles using your
VPN would be great as well.

Thanks in advance,
