NEW Emory Libraries Website and Tips for Accessing and Linking to Library Resources – January 2020

We’re pleased to announce that the Emory Libraries are starting the new year with a new, improved website!

We invite you to check out our new website’s refreshed layout and design as well as our pages for library materials, tools, services, and research help.

Please note: if you find that your bookmarked links to library resources or web pages are no longer working, you may need to delete the old bookmarks and add new links.

Here are some Tips for Accessing and Linking to Library Resources:

Access a Full Text Journal or Newspaper via eJournals@Emory A to Z List

Select the link to eJournals@Emory A-Z List
In the box beside “Find e-Journal by Title:” type in the name of a journal or newspaper
Select the title and log in with Emory Net ID and password

Bookmark a Journal or Database of Interest

Follow the instructions above to access a full text journal or newspaper using the eJournals@Emory A-Z list
Begin a database search through the Emory Libraries’ A-Z Databases List or a journal search through the eJournals@Emory A-Z List
When prompted, sign in with Emory Net ID and password
Once the journal or database home page has opened, copy or bookmark the displayed URL. The correct URL should contain proxy.library.emory.edu

New Ways to Access Journal Articles Faster

Instructions for installing LibKey Nomad (a free plugin for Google Chrome that helps you access scholarly journal articles) and see blog post, New Chrome extension streamlines access to full text
Bookmarklet for Safari and other browsers (a bookmarklet you can add to your browser that allows you to request articles through the Emory proxy server) – scroll down to view instructions

Browse an Entire Journal

We still support Browzine (an app that lets you browse, read, and monitor current academic journals)

Access a Database

Go to the A-Z Databases website
In the “Search for Databases” box, type in the name of the database, then select “Go”
Select the database’s name
Log in using your Emory Network ID and Password

Problems Accessing a Database?

Clear your cache by going to your browser’s History and clear browsing data; now try to access the database using the steps under “Access a Database,” above
If clearing the cache of the browser that you were using doesn’t help, try using a different browser to access the database; for example, if you were using Google Chrome, try using Mozilla Firefox.
