Accessing SciFinder

Exciting News: Single Sign-On for SciFinder

We are pleased to announce that we are implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) for SciFinder. This change takes effect on Monday 7th April 2025.

What is Single Sign-On (SSO)?

Single Sign-On (SSO) is a user authentication process that allows you to access multiple applications with one set of login credentials. So, there will no longer be a separate username and password for SciFinder as with most resources we have you will have seamless access so long as you have logged into the UEA.
