Passwords to e-resources

The University Library at Northumbria provides access to a wide range of electronic resources which staff and students are entitled to use.

You can explore the resources available to you by going to the NORA page.

The majority of these resources can be accessed on campus or via desktopANYWHERE without the need to enter any credentials.

However some resources require you to log in with your University username and password (the same username and password you use to log onto PCs when on campus or desktopANYWHERE off campus). Other resources may need a separate username and password.

You can find out which password is required for the resource you are interested in by using our:

You may be prompted for your University username and password in order to access the list.

Password information is also included with the description of the individual resource in the A-Z List of Databases on the NORA page.

A Skills Plus Guide is available to help you with logging into resources.
