Access from Oria
If you are outside the UiO network and you are trying to open an online resource from Oria, you will first be asked to sign in with your UiO user account. When logging in, use only your "username", not "username@uio.no".
For OUS users
If you are an OUS employee you can get access by requesting remote access and then signing in to the hospital network from home. From there you can open Oria and search for literature as usual.
The "LibKey Nomad" browser extension
If you don't use Oria, the browser extension "LibKeyNomad" can make your life a little easier. It recognizes electronic resources you visit regardless of how you find them. The extension also searches for open versions of articles (Open Access).
Go to Third Iron LibKey Nomad and install the extension that matches the browser you are using. After installation, you will be asked to select an organization, select "University of Oslo" and log in with your FEIDE user.
If you need more information about LibKey Nomad, you can watch this instructional video in English, you can also read about LibKey Nomad on the developer's FAQ pages.
Ezproxy Bookmarklet
Another option is to use an EZproxy bookmarklet in your browser. If you use the bookmark, you can "skip" going via the library's website.
This is how you do it:
- Drag and drop this link: EZproxy UiO into the bookmarks bar of your browser.
- When you want to check if you have full text access to an article, click on the bookmark from the bookmarks bar. The page is then reloaded, and if we have access, you will see the article in full text.
Alternative access methods
- If you can't access electronic resources from Oria you can use the UiO Programkiosk.
- Remote Desktop may be used by staff and members of faculty who have an office computer.
For more information about access from home see UiO's pages.
