OpenAthens Library Login

Learn how to login to access the library's eResources.

Accessing Library Resources Using OpenAthens

When logging onto the library via OpenAthens, remember that there is no longer one single place to login. Rather, the system will prompt you to log in when you try to access one of our resources and remember you for the rest of your browser session.

How you log in via OpenAthens is dependent on whether or not you have TouroOne credentials. Below are instructions for both cases.

1. Once you click onto one of our eResources, you will be presented with an OpenAthens login screen that looks like this:

OpenAthens Login Screen - Select TouroOne Credentials Option

2. Click on the “With your TouroOne credentials” option.

3. The system will redirect to the TouroOne login screen.

4. Use your network ID and password to login.

5. You will be prompted to complete the dual-factor authentication using Okta. Use either the Okta app or a code text messaged to your phone.
