With a valid CUNYcard, all faculty, staff, and students can remotely access most of the CUNY licensed electronic resources.  The steps are as follows:

1. Make sure your library barcode (located at the bottom right of your CUNYcard) is validated for the current semester/year.  You can now check online by clicking on check your library record.  If your barcode is not validated and you are currently a member of BCC, then contact the Library (718-289-5441)or the G.S. Lieblich Learning Center (718-289-5346) circulation desks. Please note: At BCC, students library barcode needs to be updated every semester; faculty and staff library barcode needs to be updated at the beginning of each academic year.
2. To access the databases, go to the CUNY Licensed Resources webpage.  Click on the "green house" icon next to the database you want to search.  You will then be prompted to enter your library barcode number (do not include any spaces).

Proxy Account - Faculty Only
