The majority of e-resources (including e-journals and e-books) listed on the Cambridge LibGuides Databases A-Z and available in iDiscover (without login) are available on-site to non-members of the University as "Walk-in users". To obtain this access you will need to have joined the Cambridge library as a member first of all. For information on joining the University Library see Cambridge University Library "Joining the Library". For details about how to access e-resources using the PCs available in the University Library see the "IT facilities" page.
The only exceptions to this "Walk-in access" are the e-books on the Dawsonera platform and e-books published by VLeBooks. These e-books are only available via University IT account authentication to University of Cambridge members on- and off-site.
The University Library provides access to Digimap resources from EDINA. These services include the Ordnance Survey online collection, Historic digimap, Geology digimap, Environment Digimap, Aerial digimap, and - from 2018 - Marine digimap. These services are only available to full members of the University of Cambridge via Raven authentication on- and off-site. For further information please visit the University Library Digimap page.
