Getting Started

Welcome! This guide is intended to be your go-to home for library resources during your time in the online PA program. Check back periodically for updates as we figure out what you need and feel free to contact us if you have any suggestions!

Here are a few things to get your computer and accounts set up to maximize access to library resources:

Set up the Yale VPN
In order to access library resources from afar, you need to set up the Yale VPN. The linked page from Yale ITS offers step-by-step instructions and contact information if you encounter issues.
Test your VPN connection
This page tests if you're successfully connected to the VPN. If you're having trouble, clear your cache and cookies. Contact Yale ITS if issues persist.
Set up your "Get It @ Yale" information
If you want a book shipped to you, you'll need to complete "Get It @ Yale" registration. Use "Medical Library" as your home library and enter your shipping information on the following screen.
Access your library account
Use Orbis to search the library catalog and renew books. You can log in with your Yale NetID.
