  • Sometimes when trying to access the UOC's digital resources, a message might appear warning you that a website cannot be trusted or that the connection is not secure, which therefore blocks you from accessing the page.

    • Go to “Advanced settings”, which will open up more information. 
    • Click on “Proceed to access site URL (unsafe)”.

    Mozilla Firefox:

    • Go to “Advanced”.  
    • Click on “Add Exception...”. 
    • Click on “Confirm Security Exception”.

    Internet Explorer:

    • Click on “Continue to this website (not recommended)”.
  • Have you found an interesting document in Google Scholar and you want to know whether the UOC Library has the full text?

    No need to enter the Library website. With this option, you can see it directly:

    • Select the option called Library links and locate the UOC in the search box:

    Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) - Full Text Biblioteca UOC.

    • Save the settings.

    From now on, when a document is available in the UOC Library, a new link will appear to the right of the results. If you click on the link, you will be able to reach the document through our system.
