Off-campus Access to E-Resources

In order to access databases and other resources from off campus, you need to provide information that verifies you are a current UNK faculty, staff or student member. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is required to access UNK’s most frequently used online services and systems such as Canvas, Box, MyBlue and email. This also includes the Library databases and your library account.
