EZproxy

OLS provides remote authentication services for individual colleges local electronic resources. We utilize the EZproxy software to do this.

Authentication:

Users are authenticated through our Aleph system patron database. If you experience issues with patrons having difficulty authentication please make sure to have your local circulation staff review the patrons account status prior to contacting OLS for help. Patrons must have a unexpired account to access services through EZproxy.

Hosted service:

There are currently 9 CUNY campuses that utilize our EZproxy service. Please contact Roland Samieske at OLS if you are interesting in using EZproxy as your campus's remote authentication solution. At the bottom of this page is a listing of all CUNY libraries that use central office EZproxy subscriptions.
