Subject: Password page for ejournals

We now have access to about 50 electronic versions of journals because of
our print subscriptions.  But most of these insist on access by user name
and password.  I think that this kind of access will only be practical if
we at McNeese set up a passworded page with all these passworded links on
it.

Otherwise I might as well cancel all these ejournals.  The Serials Dept,
Reference Desk, and several computer labs would all need lists of the
passwords.  Each time one was changed all these places would need an update.

Can anyone send me scripts for setting up ONE passworded page?  From this
page all our other passwords could be accessed for electronic journals.

How do other libraries handle this issue?
