EZProxy Remote Access
 
 


Currently enrolled students, faculty, and staff of GUST can access
the Library's licensed electronic resources off-campus using EZProxy authentication.

What is EZProxy?

EZProxy provides a way for libraries to extend web-based licensed databases to their remote users by using the EZProxy server to act as an intermediary.

How it works?

 

The user clicks on a URL to access an electronic resource on the Library Website:

  1. When accessing a GUST electronic resource from a remote location, the user will be prompted to login using their username and password. Please use your GUST ID and password for this purpose.

  1. Once authenticated, EZproxy will direct the request on the user’s behalf to the electronic resource host.
  2. Once a user has been authenticated to the EZProxy server, they will remain authenticated until the browser is closed.

Note: Computers in the University campus will by-pass the EZProxy servers. There is no change to the way users are currently accessing electronic resources on-campus.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the University Librarian at 2530-7090 or email kohlis@gust.edu.kw.
