Report your off-campus e-access problem by submitting a question to Ask a Librarian.

SIGN-ON PROBLEM?

Please change your password via https://www.sun.ac.za/password. See Change your password online.
Once that is done, you should have off-campus access to the library's e-resources using your new password.

Still cannot sign-on successfully, continue with the next step:

First, clear your cache to "start again with a clean slate" and get a completely fresh copy of the website you visit. See How to clean the cookies/cache on my preferred web browser

Important:

• Always log out of SSO and close your browser when you are finished.
• Never enter your university password on a site that does not have sun.ac.za, mymaties.com, or maties.com in its address. See How to remove a previously Saved Password from my preferred web browser
