FIRST STEPS for REMOTE RESEARCH

On the Libraries' home page check UPDATES and REMOTE ACCESS.
Make sure you have OKTA set up for access to articles in Colby databases. (You probably already do have this activated, but if you have trouble connecting to a database, check the OKTA link first.)
Interlibrary loan connects you to even more articles electronically. Directions on how to register for ILL are here.
