Our authentication system is Open Athens

In 2020 our authentication system changed from EZproxy to Open Athens this provides improved and more secure access to resources.

If you install the Lean Library browser extension you will have a more seamless experience as this saves your OpenAthens credentials

Do you have a link for a resource with ezproxy in the URL? You can fix this 

If you are attempting to access a resource from a bookmarked or old link that uses an EZProxy string (.ezp.lib.unimelb.edu.au), you can create a new link with our link generator to enable you to gain access to the resource
