Accessing Library Resources Remotely

Use this guide to troubleshoot library access issues. Learn how to sign in to access library materials 24/7!

Please ignore the 'sign in to get complete results and to request items.' This feature is causing confusion and is currently not functioning. We are aware this is a common problem, and unfortunately the “Need help logging in” buttons are broken.

Instead follow the instructions below to gain access to library resources remotely.

It’s best to find the article/eBook/resource directly by using the Library's OneSearch tool.  You can find it here: 

https://sbctc-yvc.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?vid=01STATEWA_YAKIMA:YAKIMA&sortby=rank&lang=en

1.  Type your keywords/article/journal title into the search bar at the top.

2.  Select the Available Online link.

3.  Next, scroll down the page until you see the "View Online" section of the page and select any available database listed. 

 

Logging in to Gain Access

1.  Once you choose a database from the list, you will be automatically taken to a sign in page like the one below. 

2.  Login with your YVCC email login: It will be your personal YVC email with everything before the @ symbol, and the same password you use to gain access to other college resources like Canvas.  For students the password is your birthday with no leading zero (0) and a two digit year (example: 92198).   

If you don't know your YVC email, use this link to find it!
