Our organisation has a number of distance learners. How do they get access to our subscriptions?

Please ask your users to dial in to your library for access as they would normally do. As long as the user accesses Cambridge Journals Online from an IP address within your organisation's configured IP ranges, they will be able to receive organisational access. (Remember to abide by the Terms of Use when granting access to organisational users.)

Alternatively, Account Administrators can set up designated users to have remote access. Use the 'Remote User Access' page in the 'Account Administrator Links' menu.

Organisations that have registered their Athens ID with Cambridge Journals Online can give their library users a username and password that will allow them to access journal subscriptions remotely via Athens.
