Database Names by Subject
Remote Access to most subscription databases, from computers
not connected to the University's network, is available by using
the library number from an activated Bloomsburg University
ID using the Pilot Patron Authentication System.
1. Omit all spaces between library card numbers. Card activation
status may be checked by calling the Library's Circulation Desk
at 570-389-4205. Remote access is not provided to the
general public, including those with Pennsylvania Resident cards.
2. Version 4.0 or higher of both Netscape and Internet Explorer
are recommended for most databases. If you are experiencing difficulties,
you may wish to change your browser preferences to allow cookies
and enable Java and Javascript. The AOL browser has been
known to present difficulties with some databases, especially
WebSPIRS.
If all the above steps are taken and access continues to be
denied, call (570-389-4801) or Email
the Database Coordinator and provide as much information
as possible, including the address of the page which had the
link to the database you could not access.
