If you are connecting to the Internet from a computer at home or other off-campus sites and using Chicago State University (CSU) as your Internet Service Provider (ISP) you have access to all of the resources on the Library Home Page. CSU provides some 56K modems for this purpose, and the Information Technology Division will be able to instruct you on their use. If you are not using CSU as your ISP, the most common case, you will be required to login to commercial databases (e.g., fulltext article databases) using your CSU e-mail Username and Password. However, many resources, such as the library catalog, do not require a login.
