Eduroam is the recommended secure wireless network available to students and employees throughout campus. This network is intended for most laptops, phones, and tablets that support WPA2-Enterprise/802.1x encryption. Most personally-owned devices will store login credentials and automatically connect when the network is within range. A benefit of using the Eduroam network is that your laptop or device should automatically connect and authenticate when you travel to another college or university that uses the system. IT has instructions on how to connect to Eduroam for

• iPhones and iPads
• Android devices
• Macintosh or Windows computers

For technical assistance with configuring your personal device to use the eduroam wireless network, contact the campus Information Technology Service Desk at 315-445-4579 or email servicedesk@lemoyne.edu.

For more information about Eduroam or how to obtain guest access to the network, visit the Library's "College Wireless Network" guide or IT's "Connecting to the Internet" guide.

Most of the research materials, including databases, e-journals, e-books, streaming video and audio, etc., that the Library subscribes to are available off-campus to members of the Le Moyne campus community. When you try to access a library resource from off-campus, you will first be prompted to login to the Library proxy server in order to prove your affiliation with the College. You can login using either:

1. Your Username and Password from your Le Moyne Computer Account.
2. Your name and barcode as it appears on your Le Moyne ID card.

Once you have logged in, you will be able to access the resource as though you were on-campus.

For more information, read the "Off-Campus Access" help guide. There you will also find a handy bookmarklet that you can use to push the page you're on through the proxy server. This is useful to find out if links you have found through Google are available through a Le Moyne Library subscription.
