In 2022, the current system for allowing off-campus access to library resources, EZproxy, will be replaced with OpenAthens.
OpenAthens has been chosen to replace EZproxy as it is a more reliable, flexible, and secure way of linking students to library resources.
Staff responsible for editing LEO units will be required to replace EZproxy links in their units with OpenAthens links by 23 December 2022. EZproxy links may not work after this date. We recommend updating your links in your current and upcoming units, as well as any archived units you intend to roll over in the future, as soon as possible.
ACU Library staff are available to answer any questions you may have, and can help you update links in your units if you require. Please contact LibraryHelp@acu.edu.au for assistance.

If possible, it is recommended that links be tested off-campus to ensure they are working as intended.
This video explains how to use the OpenAthens Link Generator in the ACU Library Guides to convert existing EZproxy links to OpenAthens.
Note: If converted links are not working, or you need additional support, please contact LibraryHelp@acu.edu.au.
