OpenAthens

The library is moving from EZProxy to the OpenAthens for access and authentication to our online resources. OpenAthens provides secure and seamless remote access anywhere via single sign-on with your BlueKey login credentials.

How will the switch to OpenAthens affect you?

  • You will only need to log in once and you will remain logged in for 8 hours. (Unless you switch browsers, clear cookies, or use a new device.)
  • You will be able to log in directly on many publishers' websites without having to go through the library website. See How to log in.
  • You will need to update saved links. Links with the EZproxy prefix (https://ezproxy.depaul.edu/login?url=) will continue to work for now, but you will need to update bookmarked links and links in course materials before Autumn Quarter 2024. See Create permanent links.
