Management Library

Members of the Cornell community have off-campus access to the library's many restricted resources. An active NetID and password is required.

Connecting from Off-Campus

When attempting to connect to a library database from off-campus, you will be prompted for your NetID and password.

For a list of key business databases visit our Top Business Databases page. For databases that are available remotely, a connection link will be provided. Additional databases can be found from the Cornell University Library website. More detailed instructions for connecting from off-campus are available from the help page.

Troubleshooting Problems with Off-Campus Access to Top Business Databases:

Sometimes a database will give you an error or will not allow access. Here are a few things to look for:

1. Try accessing another database. Can you get into one database, but not another?
2. Clear your browser’s cache and/or restart your browser.
3. Try using a different browser (some databases work better in a specific browser.)
4. If your computer is behind a firewall, you may have trouble accessing library databases. One option for accessing from off-campus is to use a secure virtual private network (VPN) provided by CIT. Most firewalls will allow VPN traffic.

If you continue to have trouble accessing an online resource, fill out a Technical Problem Report Form. This form lets you describe the problems you've encountered, and is then sent to Management Library's reference staff. We will help you trouble-shoot your particular situation.
