Off-campus access to Online Databases

 
Currently enrolled Calhoun students and currently employed Calhoun faculty and staff  are permitted Off Campus access under the license agreement with the database vendor. The file of valid users changes every semester. At the beginning of a semester, there may be a delay of two weeks before new students, new faculty, and new staff are in the file.

The Username for students is the seven-digit, unique Calhoun ID number on your schedule and your grade report . Faculty and staff will use the Employee ID number, also seven digits, for their Username. The Employee ID number can be found on the paycheck or pay stub. 

If you are an authorized user and have difficulty in accessing databases from Off Campus, please contact the Reference Librarian at 256-306-2777 or email reference@calhoun.edu. (Requests submitted after 2:00p.m. on Saturday will be handled on Monday.)
 

Example:

The Username is the user's 7 digit student, faculty, or staff number (add a 0 at the beginning, if only 6 digits).

 
Example: Username 0009987
 

The Password is the user's last name in lower case letters.

 
Example: Password smith
