SciFinder

2024-10-21

In order to provide access to resources that use https, your EZproxy server must be configured with an SSL certificate.

This page describes how to configure EZproxy to work with the web-based versions of SciFinder and/or SciFinder-n.

 Note: If you provide access to both SciFinder and SciFinder-n, then two starting URL's will be needed on your institution's site. To set a starting URL on your institution's site to SciFinder-n, replace the full URL after the EZproxy prefix for your institution with the host line: https://scifinder-n.cas.org/.
