VPN? Need help with Off-Campus Access?

Off-campus access to licensed library resources is limited to UC San Diego faculty, staff and students, and is operated by UC San Diego’s Educational Technology Services. Visit lib.ucsd.edu/remoteservices detailing the available methods and simple procedures for setting it up.

  • The preferred method is through the VPN AnyConnect (client) – used for your own personal computer. Go to the webpage above and download the VPN software for your operating system to gain full access to all of the library’s resources and databases, including journals and digital reserves.
  • From a public computer, use the VPN EasyConnect (web-based) method by going to vpn.ucsd.edu. This method limits your access to selected resources and databases.

For both of these sites, you’ll be required to enter your email/Active Directory (AD) username and password.
