Proper Use

Electronic resources are licensed for educational or research purposes only.
The number of times an item can be accessed, printed, or downloaded varies by publisher.

Users must respect the copyrights in any item they print or download. Permission to temporarily or semi-permanently store downloads for personal research purposes is at the discretion of the publisher.

Proxy Server

The Media Center's proxy server allows authorized members of the Keio community to access restricted databases from off campus. The proxy server lets users access databases anonymously and also allows for caching. Your browser will contact the proxy server to request a page, and the proxy then stores that page in its cache. The next time that page is accessed it is served from the cache at local network speeds.

IP address authentication is the traditional method used to identify users requesting access to electronic resources. Some databases will not allow access via the proxy server because there is no way to confirm that all users in the group are valid or not. If your IP address is within the registration range, you may be able to read the full text by disconnecting from the proxy server.
