If you want to access e-journals and e-books away from campus you will need to know your Athens username and password.   These are the same details you use to access your Swansea University email - your email address and password.

Username = 123456@swansea.ac.uk (6 digit student number followed by @swansea.ac.uk)

Password = date of birth (dd/mm/yyyy) (or whatever you have changed it to)

If you are using your own laptop or a PC at home or work you will first need to install an “Athens cookie”.  This is a very simple one-time process.

Go to http://www.swan.ac.uk/iss/DigitalLibrary/athens and follow the instructions given there.  If you need help, contact us on:
