Subscribed<\/strong> databases<\/strong> can be used by users on computers located on the university network (no logins and passwords are required), unless otherwise indicated in the description of an individual database. We suggest using databases from computers and terminals in the library network (i.e., on the premises of the Main Library). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research and teaching staff, doctoral students and students of the Wroclaw University of Economics and Business can use databases and full-text electronic sources also outside the university network (e.g., from home computers), through a Proxy server.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

To enable access, you must have an email address in the @ue.wroc.pl domain. Users simply need to configure the proxy server according to the instructions below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOTE!<\/strong> Licenses for the use of electronic services and databases prohibit the creation of entire archives, ie. significant or systematic duplication (ripping) of data. The system records logins, journal titles, links to databases and the number of full-text downloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

For questions regarding access to databases, licenses, etc., please contact: <\/strong>malgorzata.wecko@ue.wroc.pl<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For technical questions on how to configure the server on your own computers or mobile devices, please contact the IT Support Department.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Proxy server login<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t

<\/span><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\n

1. To use the proxy, add the following script to your browser: https:\/\/bg-proxy.ue.wroc.pl\/proxy\/proxy.pac<\/strong> (all browser settings can be found below) and save the changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. After doing this, visit https:\/\/proxy-bg.ue.wroc.pl<\/a> and log in. The login and password are the same as for your employee or student email<\/strong> (employees enter their first and last name separated by a period, e.g., jan.kowalski without the domain..@ue.wroc.pl; students enter only their student ID number without the domain..@student.ue.wroc.pl).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: The login page cannot be closed! Closing the window will disconnect you from the proxy server.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n

            • Confirm by clicking the OK<\/strong> button on this and the next screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              After entering the browser, a login window will appear, where you need to enter the login and password for the Proxy server. The login and password is the same as for employee or student mail<\/strong> (employees at login enter first and last name<\/strong> separated by a dot, e.g. jan.kowalski without domeny..@ue.wroc.pl; students at login enter only index number<\/strong> without domeny..@student.ue.wroc.pl).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              We suggest setting a Proxy for Firefox browser.<\/strong> Most web browsers refer us to Windows 10 settings when we want to set proxy server data. If you choose this setting, the entire system will communicate through proxy servers when connecting to the Internet. This is a handicap if you only want to set up proxies through one browser, or if you want to set up several browsers (such as portables), each with different settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Mozilla Firefox, allows you to set proxy parameters in your own settings. So we will only browse the web with a specific IP when we do it through Firefox.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n
