Take uni home with you

Posted on 1 December 2019

Access your work and resources over the vacation.

You may be leaving York soon for the vacation but you can still access many services whilst you’re away from campus.

• Find out what you can access online using the Library’s E-resources guide - the Library buys the e-book version of all news books, if available
• Use other university libraries over the holiday with the SCONUL scheme
• Log on as though on a managed PC and access filestore and software using the Virtual Desktop Service (VDS)
• Access the University network when you are off campus through the Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Help is available

Remember - you can still contact the Library & IT Help Desk for help when off campus. Our staff can connect to your machine remotely using a tool called Bomgar.
