Many of the library’s journal article databases offer an interface tailored for the smaller screens of mobile
devices such as iPhones, Androids, and Blackberries. To find journal articles using a mobile device do the
following:
Connect to www.carlow.edu/library
and select Off Campus Access to Library Services.
Select this option even if you are on the Carlow
campus.
On the next screen enter in your Active Directory
username and password and select Login.
Your Active Directory username and password is
the same username and password you use to
access Blackboard, email and the campus lab
computers.
You will now see a page with links to access the
mobile interface to any EBSCOhost databases*.
*You will see a list of all the available EBSCOhost
databases after you log into the EBSCOhost
mobile interface site.
