PressReader is the world’s largest all-you-can-read magazine and newspaper platform. It includes over 7,000 titles, from 120+ countries in 60+ languages. It is available as a website and as an app (see link below).
While on campus, you automatically have access to the website.
To log in while off campus, sign in via Open Athens; instructions are below:
If you are accessing via IP (that is on campus), PressReader generates a 7 day "token", meaning you can continue accessing remotely for 7 days; after the 7 days, you would need to reconnect to the IP network to regain a 7 day access.
If you are accessing PressReader off campus, the website generates a 30 day "token", meaning you can continue issuing remotely for the full 30 days; after the 30 days, you would need to re-sign in to generate another 30 day "token".
Signing in from off campus
- Select the person icon in the top right of the window.
- Select ‘Library or Group’ from the pop-up menu.
- Search for ‘Roehampton’ and select it.
- Enter your Roehampton email address and password.
A teacup symbol will appear when authentication is completed.
You will need to set up a PressReader account to access many of the additional and personalisation features. One benefit with registering an account is that the access will be passed onto any device that you later login with. You can also change your nickname.
