CONNECTING TO STOUT DATABASES - OFF-CAMPUS ACCESS TO LIBRARY DATABASES (REMOTE ACCESS) - Research Guides at University of Wisconsin-Stout

Who can use UW-Stout databases?

Access to Library subscription databases is available to all students who are currently enrolled and to all currently enrolled faculty and staff. Use the links on the Library Home page to find:

Articles and Databases. Use the Articles and Databases link to select databases and search for articles.
Journal Titles. Use the Journals A-Z List.
E-Books. Use the E-Books link or connect to the Stout Library Catalog, then limit your search to E-Books.
NOTE: Off-campus patrons no longer need to select an "OFF-CAMPUS link to Library Catalog" to access e-books!

An activated UW-Stout e-mail account is required for access to subscription databases

If you are not using a computer on campus, you will need to enter your UW-Stout e-mail username and password on the proxy login screen to connect to most databases, electronic journals, and e-books because of licensing requirements.

If you have not activated your Stout e-mail account, refer to the Ask5000 HelpDesk E-Mail FAQ.
Students taking courses off-campus (such as at Ft. McCoy) and those signing up for a short term weekend course often do not have Stout e-mail accounts established automatically. Contact the ASK5000 Help Desk (telephone 715-232-5000 or e-mail: ask5000@uwstout.edu).
