Off-campus access
The UPO's electronic resources are also available from home.
What does this mean?
It means that you can access the full text of articles in the journals you are interested in and access the contents of the databases, as if you were doing the research in the department.
Most of the scientific content is in fact available only upon payment of subscriptions, paid by the University Library System.
If you do a search when connected to UPO or Eduroam Wi-Fi or from a PC in the department, the subscription works automatically.
If you search from home or without connecting to the institutional Wi-Fi, you will need to follow the instructions you find on this page of the UPO Library System.
Some resources have been made accessible directly via the University credentials.
