Searching our catalogue and managing your library account – all users
Wherever you are, you can search our catalogue, manage your library account, renew loans and reserve items.
Reading e-books, e-journals & databases at home and on the go – University of Würzburg members only
Log into the university network using your JMU-account (Informations for University Hospital employees).
You can do this in three ways:
- Not all licensed services are available via this method.
Proceed as follows:
- Register on the EZProxy login page.
- Open the catalogue, database information system or the electronic magazine library and conduct your research.
- Call up the content you need, for example using the "full-text button" in the catalogue.
- Or use one of the EZProxy direct links to the providers.
Tips:
- You will know that you are connected to the EZProxy when the internet address in the browser is followed by: "ezproxy.bibliothek.uni-wuerzburg.de"
- Make sure to log out of external devices; otherwise, the session will end after two hours.
Proceed as follows:
- Call up the website with the content you want to read.
- Look for the institution’s login option – this may be named Login, Shibboleth Login, Remote User, Institutional Login or Access Management Federation.
- Select the German universities (Germany, DFN-AAI, Ger) and then the University of Würzburg (UB Würzburg, University of Würzburg, Julius-Maximilians-Universität or University Library Würzburg)
- The WueLogin page will then appear. Log in with your JMU account.
Tips:
- WueLogin is a Shibboleth process provided by the University.
- If you are using a mobile device, we recommend selecting the "Full Site" view.
- Install the VPN-Client and go to "Group > Publisher access/Library" to set it up.
- For instructions and help with installation, contact the Information Technology Centre.
