Brief description of 3 authentication methods:

1. New Library Login (OpenAthens):  Many library resources use this method for logging in; requires no setup. When prompted, select "Marquette University Libraries (AZURE)" and then sign in using your Marquette email/password.  
2. Library Login (legacy version):  This method is quick and requires no setup.  Just login before clicking on library database links or when prompted to do so. A few library databases will not work with it. 
3. VPN (virtual private network): The VPN requires you to download an app onto both your cell phone and your computer. A few library databases require it for off-campus access. Outline of the steps required for the VPN:
   • Register for Duo Mobile if you haven't already (see "detailed VPN instructions" linked just below).
   • Download Duo Mobile app onto your cell phone. Allow push notifications for it.
   • Download GlobalProtect app onto your computer. Complete GlobalProtect setup on your computer.
   • Find detailed VPN instructions from ITS here.
