Reference Info

There has been a patron in Delaware County that has been accessing Ref.USA beyond normal research use. Because of this Helen has sent e-mails regarding the changes to access the database from home. Will fax the new format to UDM & UDP.

Hello, again,
ReferenceUSA has been deleted from the proxy server. From now on, remote access for ReferenceUSA will be handled by the vendor itself; customers will authenticate themselves on a ReferenceUSA page simply by typing in their library barcode number. ReferenceUSA has 25918 on file for us, and it works fine from where I sit.

I could not do a print screen from our off-network computer to show you the authentication page, so I'm going to fax a print-out to you.

Feel free to question or comment. Thanks!

Hello, everyone,
If all goes well, we will have a new way for customers to access ReferenceUSA remotely, within the hour. There may be a slight break in access while we work on this.
Thanks; apologies for the inconvenience.
