Can can I access IEEE Xplore through Shibboleth?
Answer
For reliable access to IEEE Xplore, the library strongly recommends accessing IEEE via the library website: https://libproxy.utdallas.edu/login?url=http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/home.jsp. This link includes the proxy prefix, which assures working access on- or off-campus to all eligible UTD users (current students, staff, and faculty).
On the other hand, it is possible to access IEEE Xplore through the standard (non-proxied) URL - https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/home.jsp - (for instance, when discovered through a web search) by following the steps below:
- Click Institutional Sign In.
- Click Shibboleth.
- Search by Institution Name: University of Texas at Dallas.
- Click University of Texas at Dallas and the NetID login screen should appear.
- After entering your NetID and password, you should see a UT Dallas logo, confirming full access.
