***We are now using the proxy re-write method for off-campus access to our databases. This means that you no longer need to configure browser proxy settings. When you click on a database you will now see a page called "USD's Library Patron Identification".All you need do is enter your name and your library barcode number. The barcode number is located near the bottom of your ID card and begins with 2507. ONLY current University of San Diego students, faculty and staff may use the USD Libraries' subscription databases.  You must be registered as a patron in order to use the system.  To register, go the circulation desk of either the Copley Library or the Legal Research Center, fill out the required form and present your valid USD ID card. Special note for AOL users!!
