I'm having trouble logging into the library's databases.

Answer

Here are steps to try first:

  1. Try a different browser.  Some browsers don't "play nice" with the library's databases.  Browsers like Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox may work while others don't!

  2. Clear the browser cache (directions for clearing your browser cache can be found here). Try to access the database again.

  3. If you still cannot access a database, please fill out the form on the Login Problem Report page.

 

Information we need to help troubleshoot login problems:

  1. Do you begin from the Libraries’ homepage at https://www.lib.auburn.edu?

    • If so, what steps do you follow from there?

  2. If not, where do you start (e.g., Google, a saved link, a database)?

  3. Which journal or resource are you trying to access?

  4. What browser and device are you using?

  5. Are you accessing from on-campus or off-campus?

  6. Do you see any error messages or prompts? If so, could you describe them or share a screenshot?
