Although everyone is welcome to use the VCCS services, some of  the commercial sources referenced on this and associated pages are restricted to the faculty and students of the VCCS because of licensing agreements. This restriction is enforced currently by in two ways:
(1) On-campus access is limited to  workstations connected to the VCCNET to access these databases, i.e., limited to VCCS owned IP addresses;
(2) Off-campus access is controlled by using a proxy server that required the user to have a VCCS user id and password-- for instructions on how to use the proxy server go to the proxy server information pages
The symbol (VIVA institutions onlyVIVA only) means that VIVA licensed the database and it is available to VCCS users through its membership in VIVA. The symbol (VCCS only) means that the VCCS licensed the database and it is available to VCCS users only.
