UH Hilo and Hawai'i Community College students and faculty can access Mookini Libray online resources from off-campus.

To access a database or journal from off-campus, please have your validated UH ID ready. You must come to the Circulation Desk in the Library to have your ID validated at the beginning of each semester.

When clicking on a resource link from off-campus, you will be asked to enter your ID barcode and last name at the authentication screen. Read and follow the on-screen instructions carefully.

Some common problems:

1.  Make sure to enter your UH ID number with no spaces or hyphens.  (Demo / Handout)

2.  Not sure what your UH ID number is?  Check your photo ID or look it up at myuhportal.hawaii.edu.  (Demo / Handout)

3.  Are you a Hawai'i Community College student, faculty, or staff member?  Some Library resources are only available for the UHH community.  Double check the database listing to make sure it doesn't say "Licensed for UHH users only".  (Demo / Handout)

4.  Have you validated your ID this semester?  You will not be able to use our online resources until you do.  Immediate validation is available at the Circulation Desk.  Or validate your ID online here.  (Demo / Handout)  (If you validate your ID online, please note that it will take 1 or more days, excluding weekends and holidays, to process.)

5.  Is the database itself asking you for an ID and a password?  Something is wrong at their end; please try again later, and fill out our "Database Troubleshooting" form if the problem persists.  (Demo / Handout)
