Access from Off Campus
You can search the Five College Libraries catalog from any browser, anywhere.
To connect to online research tools, you may be asked to log in using your Hampshire College username and password (e.g. bps14, not bsmith). Due to vendor restrictions, alums and visitors do not have off-campus access to research tools.
