Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Headquarters may be closed, but the Library is always open!? Virtually, that is.

In response to inquiries from Permanent Mission staff, the Dag Hammarskj?ld Library has created a platform for staff and delegates to access the Library¡¯s subscription resources remotely while we work away from Headquarters?during the COVID-19 pandemic.? Under normal circumstances, Permanent Mission staff are only permitted to access subscription resources while visiting the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Headquarters complex in person.? We are pleased to offer this interim solution to meet the research needs of our clients at the Missions.

Some of the available resources include:

  • The Economist
  • Foreign Policy
  • Africa Confidential
  • ProQuest Central, a large database that includes thousands of electronic journals, e-books, and newspapers

The new access platform is supported by the Library¡¯s Open Athens authentication system which allows all New York Secretariat staff to access library resources remotely using their Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµITE IDs.?
