Use links from the Libraries

Use our library links to e-journals, e-books, and databases so that you can be authenticated as a current student, faculty, or staff member. 

You can recognize our "Athenized" links because they often start with
https://go.openathens.net/redirector/uark.edu?url=

Where to get links

• OneSearch
• Databases A-Z

Use your UARK login

These links will take you first to a prompt to choose your login method. In almost every case, you will log in by choosing "Sign in through UARK."

You will then be redirected to the familiar campus login page:

Authenticating from other links

If you are browsing online and happen to discover an item of interest, look for a login link on most publisher websites. Some terms to look for include:

• “Login through your institution”
• "OpenAthens"
• "Federated login"
• or even just "Sign In"

Though the navigation will vary a bit on each individual platform, you will usually be asked to specify “University of Arkansas Libraries” and then login with your UARK email and password.

Please IGNORE the OpenAthens individual account login on the left side of the screen. These individual accounts are only used for temporary logins for those without a UARK username and password.

Look up the item on our website

If you find an article or other resource on the Web and can't get in, try returning to the library web site and looking up the journal title, the book title, or using our ArticleFinder tool if you have an exact citation.
