NEW ELECTRONIC RESOURCES PORTAL: MY E-RESOURCES
The library continually strives to provide cost-effective,
user-friendly and easy access to electronic information resources.
The library's new My E-RESOURCES portal went live on
July 1st 2010, replacing the current electronic resources
portal which will be decommissioned from the 13th of August
2010. The MY E-RESOURCES portal includes
the library’s local holdings as well as the Clinicians
Health Channel e-resources “provided by the
Victorian Government’s Department of Health for health
professionals employed in a public health sector or work in
an agency primarily funded by the Department of Health, Victoria”
(CHC website).
FOR
RVEEH
EMPLOYEES :
Will I still use my
current username & password?
No. RVEEH employees will need to register for
their Athens login for offsite access and onsite access to
some CHC resources.
A number of CHC resources can be accessed onsite,
on the RVEEH network, without authenticating, as these are
be IP-validated. However, a few CHC resources will still require
Athens authentication, onsite. This is due to technical issues
with the provider of the resource. Please register
for your Athens login if you have not already done
so.
**Please note that if you have already registered
for your Athens login for the Clinicians Health Channel, you
need not do anything, as you will use the SAME login for the
new portal (MY E-RESOURCES).
ALL offsite usage will require authentication
as outlined below:
* Use your Athens login. If
you have not registered, please do so via this link (from
the library homepage):
https://register.athensams.net/chc/
NOTE: If you are filling out the Athens
registration form offsite (outside of the RVEEH networK),
you will need to type in your Eye & Ear Hospital email
address NOT your personal email address (hotmail, yahoo, etc.).
If you currently do not have an Eye & Ear
Hospital email address, you will need to fill out the Athens
Registration form within RVEEH (network) or in the library.
In this instance, you may type in your personal email address.
Need Help? Please
contact the library.
FOR
RANZCO
(non RVEEH):
RANZCO Fellows & trainees (non-RVEEH) will
transition to the new My E-RESOURCES portal on Friday
the 13th of August, 2010. The old portal that uses
the generic login will be decommissioned on Monday the 16th
of August, 2010.
Please note that the new MY E-RESOURCES
portal will require you to use your library barcode
which is on your library card sent to you in August last year
and your MY LIBRARY PIN, also sent to you last
year, or when you recently registered for library membership.
If you do not have either, please contact the library (library@eyeandear.org.au)
and we will send you out a new library card with your PIN
which you can then change. You will normally use your MY
LIBRARY username and PIN to login to your My Library
account on the library
catalogue to renew your library books, check your
borrowing history, reserve library items, etc. You will now
use the SAME login details, with a slight change to the barcode,
to access your electronic journals through the new
MY E-RESOURCES portal on the library
homepage.
Therefore your new My E-RESOURCES portal
username would be your library barcode with the prefix"vic".
It does not matter which State you are in, the prefix
will still be "vic".
e.g.Username:vicB0015760
Password: efr67g (My Library PIN)
What is my Athens Login?
Ans. In the MY E-RESOURCES portal,
some publisher websites may prompt you to enter your ATHENS
login. Please note that your Athens login is the same as your
MY E-RESOURCES login above (e.g. vicB000...).
***Please request
your MY LIBRARY log-in details if you have not already
done so.
