The databases provided by the Business Library are collections of licensed materials (articles, ebooks, etc.) available for academic research to currently enrolled Golden Gate University Business School students, faculty, and staff.
A select few of the databases are available to Alumni, but licensing agreements restrict access to these resources in most cases to only those with a myGGU login through a system called OpenAthens.
OpenAthens will prompt you to authenticate as a GGU-affiliated person with your myGGU credentials any time you attempt to access a library electronic resource.
If you are a current student, faculty member, or staff person and do not know your myGGU credentials please contact itservicedesk@ggu.edu to request. If you are an alumni or DBA student who is not currently registered for classes please contact the library at askalibrarian@ggu.edu to see which options might exist for access.
For more information, please see http://www.ggu.edu/sso.
This sometimes happens after a period of keyboard inactivity or closing your browser. Click on the database web link to start again. Some databases have a limited number of concurrent users. If you get a message stating that the database is unavailable, try again at a later time.
If you have an activated OpenAthens login, you can continue to use it until it expires.
For more library-related alumni information please see http://ggu.libguides.com/alumni or contact askalibrarian@ggu.edu
We provide access to the databases through the library's website. Some database vendors are better than others at providing information related to Accessibility. Any information available is typically included in the help link of the database.
