As of 1 July 2012 free Internet access to the electronic subscription resources of the SU Library Service is only available from the Library’s website.
As announced in a previous Bits-‘n-Bytes article, the former method used to provide free access – namely a configuration setting in the end-user’s browser called the PAC file – is for a number of reasons no longer a technically feasible method to employ. Free Internet access to electronic subscription resources is therefore now only available by following the applicable links on the Library website. In such a way the cost for accessing the resources is automatically discounted from the end-user’s monthly Internet bill. These links can also be bookmarked in web browsers to serve as shortcut links to electronic resources.
Users are still encouraged to use Inetkey whilst accessing subscription electronic resources, because it will speed-up the download of non-academic content from these e-resources sites.
