All of the library's online resources are available to you from off-campus. Just remember to link to resources from library web pages so you'll be recognized as a member of the W & M community. For example, if you try to access JSTOR by going directly to www.jstor.org from off-campus, you won't be able to get in. If you link to JSTOR from the library's electronic resources, you'l be asked for your W&M and passed on through.
Be sure to set your preferences in Google Scholar so you can link to W & M resources.
