UC Libraries Platform Change (beginning May 3rd)

User access to library electronic resources is controlled by UC credentials and the library proxy server. To improve management of this, the libraries are changing proxy servers at the end of the spring semester. All URLs containing the library proxy will need to be changed to the new server address. The library has created tools to assist in changing/creating proxy URLs. Please plan to change library resource links in course syllabi, Canvas, personal bookmarks, etc. starting in the month of May. The library will maintain the old server through the end of 2021, so access will be continuous for summer semester and ample time is provided for the URLs to be updated.

  • May 3rd: server address changes
    • From: http://proxy.libraries.uc.edu/login?url=http://www.abc.com
    • To: (May 3rd): http://uc.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://www.abc.com
    • The proxy tools page will be updated May 3rd to assist with editing URLs
  • After May 3rd, example of new proxy URL for the title “very short introductions”
    • https://uc.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://www.veryshortintroductions.com/
  • May 3rd through 2021: change library resource links in course syllabi, Canvas, personal bookmarks, etc.
  • January 2022: outdated URLs will no longer work for library resources

The libraries will continue to send information about this platform change. We appreciate your assistance and attention!
