eJournal and eBook Remote Access for ICTP Users

On-site ICTP users connected to the ICTP Campus Network have full access to licensed library catalogue resources. However, remote users wishing to view and download certain papers and eBooks need either a VPN (virtual private network) or to remotely access content using their ICTP credentials.
