CASA - Campus Activated Subscriber Access
The Lyell Collection has enabled Google Scholar's Campus-Activated Subscriber Access (CASA). CASA allows off-campus and mobile users to access the Lyell Collection material seamlessly, exactly as though the user is accessing via authenticated IP ranges on-campus. With CASA, library users can begin their research in a campus or company library and continue to access Lyell Collection content without the hassle of logging in through a proxy server or web portal, provided they use the same device each time. Alternatively, if the user has a Google account, this same seamless authentication follows the user on any device that is off-campus. Users must access the Lyell Collection 'on-campus' at least every 30 days to maintain off-campus access. Additionally, material accessed via CASA is correctly attributed to the subscribing institution, so usage statistics remain accurate.

User FAQs
- As a reader/researcher, how can I take advantage of CASA?
Answer: Visit your campus and read some journals at least once a month. You do NOT need to use Google Scholar, but doing a Scholar search is an easy way to do this. Alternatively, if you are traveling far from campus, you can connect monthly via your campus VPN/proxy. - Do I need a Google Account to use CASA?
Answer: No, a Google Account is not needed to use CASA. If you have a Google account and have signed into that account on campus, then your CASA access is 'portable' across multiple signed-in devices. In other words, you can use an office machine in campus, a mobile device in transit, and then a laptop at home and if they are all signed in to the same Google account CASA will enable the same access across all of them. - Sometimes the article I want to access isn't available via CASA. What do I do then?
Answer: The article may be so new (a day or less old), that it is not yet indexed by Scholar. Wait a couple of days and try again.
Or follow the next Answer:
Answer: It could be that you have not been on campus with 30 days to 'renew' your CASA access. If that's the case, you may need to use your campus proxy server to refresh that access, and then CASA will work again.
