Remote access for NRC (employees and authorized users only)
How does remote access work?
NRC employees working from home or travelling must use the NRC Virtual Private Network client software (VPN Client) to access the restricted resources licensed by the National Science Library. You must have a valid NRC username and password to use the VPN client software.
The Virtual Private Network (VPN) enables NRC employees and authorized users to join the NRC network from off-site and access electronic resources as if they were onsite. The VPN client software must be installed on the user's computer. To start a session, simply connect to VPN client.
Please note that the VPN client software is automatically installed on NRC Green laptops and can be installed, upon request, on NRC Black computers. For assistance using the VPN, contact the NRC Client Service Centre.
Why can't I access a licensed resource?
If you cannot access a licensed resource, the National Science Library may not have a license for it or there may be a problem with the resource itself. Contact the NRC Library for assistance.
