Off-campus Access:
- As of July 30, 2010 the Law Library web site is compatible with EZProxy, the new off-campus authentication system in use at Founders Library.
- Through August 2010 patrons can also still use the NIU VPN to connect to library databases. Please see http://www.ulib.niu.edu/faqs/authenticationvpnfaq.pdf for instructions on how to set up the connection.
Online Catalog:
- As of June 1, 2010, NIU changed the default version of the online catalog to the "Vu-Find" interface from the WebVoyage "classic" interface. Both versions of the NIU catalog search the same underlying information.
To set up a Vu-Find account, follow the instructions on the CARLI library consortium web site. Please note that the e-mail address you enter when creating your Vu-Find account does not affect where your overdue and courtesy notices are sent. These notices are always sent to your official NIU e-mail address.
