NHS staff and students can register for an NHS OpenAthens username and password to access our electronic resources. The single sign on allows access to a wide range of resources including ebooks, ejournals and databases.

Eligible users can register from home or at work. You can register for OpenAthens  here.

If you are transferring to Somerset FT from another Trust, you may already have an OpenAthens account. If so, please let us know and we will transfer your account to us so that you will be able to access our subscribed online resources. 

Please note: when registering from home it can take up to 7 days to verify your account. Registration from an NHS networked computer is verified the same day.

Click here  to see if you are eligible for an OpenAthens password. If you are still unsure please contact the library.

If you forget your password you can reset it by clicking here.
