Authorised users and access permissions
In addition to the conditions of use each publisher's licence defines who may access their resource. These people are called "authorised users". Each group of authorised users has different access permissions.
Authorised users are:
- Current students and staff
- Partner college staff
- Visiting professors & research fellows
- Emeritus professors
Authorised users with accounts can access subscription resources using Library Search or by going directly to the resource and choosing the Academic/Institutional/Shibboleth option. There is currently no remote access to e-resources for user groups without a user ID.
Current students and staff

- all our subscription e-resources.
Partner college staff
To arrange the set-up of their user ID and password, partner college staff should contact their Faculty representative. They may access many aubscription e-resources where publisher licenses allow.
