Q: How do I use PubMed if the AW Library login has changed? Do I need to create an account with TDNet before using the AW Library resources?

Question: I would like to use PubMed but it seems the library log in has changed. 

Does our library page now go through TDNetDiscover? 

Do I need to create an account with them before I can use the Ascension library resources?

Answer:   

PubMed uses a special url to tap into our Ascension Wisconsin fulltext:  

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?otool=ahslib  

As of January 2023, our new AW Library home page is 

https://ascensionwi17.tdnetdiscover.com/

Feel free to bookmark this page, or save it to your favorites for easy access.

The new platform is on TDNet.

• You do NOT need to set up a personal account with TDNet, unless you are working offsite.     A TDNet personal account does make things easier if want to order articles, or take advantage of some other personalized features.  

• You can order articles anonymously through the new library pages (TDNet), but you'd have to enter your contact info every time.  Whereas having a TDNet personal account will automatically populate your contact info when ordering an article or requesting other library services.

• If accessing remotely (working from home), you will also need to make sure you're using a VPN or Citrix for authentication to our databases.   

• If you are using a work computer on site, everything related to library access should be seamless.
