Access/Login Issues

If you are on site at your institution, you should be able to seamlessly access the site(s) of interest from any computer. If you are experiencing difficulty accessing a site, please contact your library's reference desk.

If you are off site, you can log in to our sites using just your MyAccess profile, provided you previously created a MyAccess profile while logged in to your institution’s network. If you haven’t established a MyAccess profile, you will first need to log in to your institution’s network (instructions below) and then sign up for one. You can also gain access to our sites by just logging in through your institution, but establishing a MyAccess profile is a more convenient method to view our sites remotely.

A majority of institutions use a proxy server to provide remote access to their users. To log in using a proxy server:

Go to your institution's library website.
Locate the databases or electronic resources page.
Locate the site you wish to access. When you click on it, you will be re-routed to your institution's proxy log-in page and asked for your institutional log-in credentials (often the same username and password you use to log into your computer or gain access to your institution's intranet, though log-in credentials vary by institution). Once you have logged in, you will be rerouted to the site.

Not all institutions use proxy servers, so if the instructions above do not apply to you, please contact your library reference desk to find out about remote access at your institution.

If you are having trouble logging into your MyAccess profile, please contact Online Customer Service (by email at OnlineCustomer_Service @ mheducation dot com or by phone at 1-888-307-5984 [toll-free, U.S. only] or 1-614-759-3663 [outside the U.S.] between 8 AM and 5 PM Eastern Standard Time to confirm you have the correct username and password.

Methods of Access

The Access suite of resources offer a full range of access options for institutions, including:

IP Authentication

Institutional subscribers submit their network IP ranges to McGraw-Hill Medical during subscription setup. These ranges are verified and loaded into the system and all users coming from inside the range are automatically provided seamless access from any IP-authenticated computer.

Referring URL/Domain

Institutional subscribers can place registered links to our site(s) behind their secure login (for example, a library site that has already validated a student). The institution must register the domain and URLs where the links are placed with McGraw-Hill Medical during subscription setup. These links will then automatically and seamlessly log the user into the site(s) every time they are clicked.

EZproxy Configuration

Remote access to the Access resources via EZProxy requires EZproxy 2.4c GA (2004-03-21) or later combined with this database definition:

T [Insert Site Name] U [Insert Site URL] DJ [Insert Site Domain] DJ mhmedical.com

For example, the database definition for AccessMedicine would be as follows:

T: AccessMedicine
U: http://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com
DJ: accessmedicine.mhmedical.com
DJ: mhmedical.com

You can find our most recent EZproxy stanza at this link, https://help.oclc.org/Library_Management/EZproxy/Database_stanzas/McGraw-Hill_Medical

The stanza in that link applies to all of our medical sites so we recommend customers copy the entire stanza exactly into their proxy's configuration file in the event that they subscribe to a new site.

Athens Authentication

If you have an Athens Organization ID that you would like to register, please email us at OnlineCustomer_Service @ mheducation dot com.

Username/Password

The welcome email you received at the beginning of your subscription contained the username and password you can use to access the site remotely. If you are unable to locate this email, please contact OnlineCustomer_Service @ mheducation dot com and ask them for your username and password.

___________________________________________________________________________________________

OpenURL

All Access sites are OpenURL-enabled.

Benefits of OpenURL

Now thousands of links to chapters and books from inside our Access sites can steer users to full-text institutional collections. Instead of seeing only the abstract in the databases or journals in PubMed, the user can go to the full text or shelf location of journals or books their institution owns.

Setting Up Your Institution's Access Resources For OpenURL

If you wish to set up OpenURL link resolvers, please email customer success @ mheducation dot com. Please specify that your email pertains to setting up OpenURL link resolvers for your institution and provide your institution's baseURL. We will confirm when set up is complete.
