How do I access the library's databases from off campus?
Answer
Note! Our licensing agreements allow off campus access only for current Seattle Central students or employees.
When you are OFF CAMPUS you must login with your myseattlecolleges login.
Example for student Heather Johnson with SID 999123456
Login Name: heather.johnson@seattlecolleges.edu
Password: [student creates the password]
You will see the prompt for this remote authentication after you select one of the databases on our A-Z Database List OR after you do a search in Finder and select an online title from the results list.
If students need help activating or changing their myseattlecolleges account:
- Activate or reset the MySeattleColleges password on the campus web site at https://tools.seattlecolleges.edu/home.
- The MySeattleColleges system asks students for their full student ID number, PIN (which is their birth date, six characters), and the password they created.
- The MySeattleColleges user name is typically a student's first name.last name. Password is at least 8 characters and includes an upper case letter, a lower case letter, a number, AND a special character. Students have to create their own password.
