VPN Reminder
IMPORTANT NOTE about access to library resources:
Many of the library resources require that your computer be authenticated on the Case network. This means that if your computer is not connected directly to the Case network via ethernet cable, you must authenticate using VPN. If you are off campus or using Case's wireless, you must have VPN installed, running, and logged in on your computer.
The library homepage has a network connection status indicator at the top of the right column. A green light means your campus network connection is active, or a red light means you need to authenticate with VPN. The status indicator looks like this:
More information about using VPN for wireless or remote access can be found on the Case Help site for VPN.
