Only individuals with Marquette University credentials can access the library’s resources off-campus. The majority of the library's resources can be accessed using your MU credentials (via OpenAthens). For more details about logging in, see our Off Campus Access page.
NOTE: Alumni and guests must be on campus and connected to Marquette Wi-Fi to access articles.
VPN
For some select resources, you may need to be connected to the Marquette VPN to access the library’s resources off-campus.
The VPN connects students, faculty, and staff to campus-restricted resources. To access the VPN, you must use multi-factor authentication (MFA). MFA enhances the security of your Marquette account by using a secondary device to verify your identity. Marquette University uses Microsoft Authenticator for MFA.
Follow the directions on this page to get started with Microsoft Authenticator.
To log in to Marquette VPN, follow this link: https://vpn.mu.edu/. Use your Marquette University credentials when prompted.
Proceed to access the article(s) from the library from the A-Z Database List or from the library search.
