Online Databases: By Subject


NEW! -- Access to the following databases is now available from off-campus via the SWU proxy server.  If you are on the SWU Central campus or one of our four regional learning centers, you should not need a password to access these databases.
From off-campus, use the following login information: Use the same login name and password that you use to login to a computer in the SWU computer lab or to access your SWU email.  Note: this is not the password you use to access MyCampus.
If you are having trouble with these links, you may still login using the old passwords.  Go to the databases by subject list to use the old passwords.  The old passwords will be deactivated after proxy server access is fully operational.
