Additional Information About Accessing Library Resources

The KansasCOM Library is able to offer our preceptors access to several premier resources.

It is important to note that:

  • You will have the best experience using the links provided on this webpage.
  • Accessing directly from a publisher website or from other pages on the library website will prevent you from accessing the content.

*Click on the tabs of this box for tips about each library resource.

  • Select OpenAthens to login.
  • You can login and register for your UpToDate account on your laptop, tablet or phone. 
  • UpToDate requires a separate registration to access this resource

  • You will be prompted to register for your account after you login to OpenAthens; it should look like this (phone app):

 

  • After you complete your registration, go to your app store and search for UpToDate. 
  • It should be at or near the top of the list and is from Wolters Kluwer.
  • Download the app and sign in to your account (image of phone logged in to app):

  • If you use the app on your tablet or phone you do not need to use the OpenAthens login again for this resource. Just use the app on your device!
