"UMCG Anywhere" does NOT provide direct access to the digital library
The new virtual desktop of the UMCG is called "UMCG Anywhere" In this desktop you unfortunately work off-campus. That means that you do not have direct access to the digital library, such as our e-journals and e-books.
What is the easiest way to get to the digital collection at home?
You can still access the digital collection in the following ways:
- Always start your search on the CMB website . The links there will automatically go to a login screen first, where you can log in with your UMCG account or RUG account.
- Or log in to the proxy server beforehand.
Either way, once logged in you have access to our online collection for the entire session.
The virtual desktop of the UG is called the UWP (uwp.rug.nl). You always have direct access to our entire digital collection in the UWP.
Other useful tools for access
Lean Library: the library in your browser
Add our browser extension now to your browser EDGE in the "UMCG Anywhere" and at home!: anywhere, anytime access to our online information resources, for your desktop or laptop.
(We furthermore advice you to login into the EDGE browser with your UMCG-account, and choose to synchronize. This way your extensions, like LeanLibrary will stay available.)
(not yet for tablets/mobile)
Contact the library (cmb@umcg.nl) if you want help, or more info.
Library Connect button
also for tablets / mobile
This is a very useful tool to get access from everywhere, ánd it always shows the Get-It button in PubMed.
