Login via eAccess
Before you start your e-media search, we recommend to authenticate as a TUM member via eAccess.
- Log in with your TUM ID or your TUM e-mail address at https://eaccess.ub.tum.de/login.
- Then select a suitable search portal, e.g. OPAC for e-books or EZB for e-journals.
For more information on TUM ID and login details, please visit the TUM FAQ page. If you have any problems concerning your TUM ID, please contact the TUM Helpdesk at it-support@tum.de.
Login via Bookmarklet
If you click on URLs of licensed e-media without authentification as a TUM member, you may be denied access or run into a paywall. To authenticate via eAccess subsequently, we provide you with a browser bookmarklet, a special bookmark tool that enables authentication by reloading the URL via eAccess.
- Add the bookmarklet to your browser's favorites or the bookmark toolbar. Right-click the following link to save it to your bookmarks: Reload via eAccess
- Every time you call up the URL of licensed content, e.g. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-8348-2171-3, simply click on the bookmarklet.
- The URL will then be reloaded and you will be routed to the eAccess login page where you must enter your TUM ID or TUM e-mail address.
- After login you will be redirected to the original URL, in this example http://dx.doi.org.eaccess.ub.tum.de/10.1007/978-3-8348-2171-3, and you will gain access to TUM licensed resources without paywall.
Please note: The bookmarklet does not work with some providers, e.g. Thieme eBooks or Web of Science. In these cases, please log in to eAccess first before accessing such databases and platforms. Alternatively, you can put in the URL bar https://eaccess.ub.tum.de/login?url= in front of the resource URL in order to reload via eAccess.

Logout
There are two logout options:
- automatically if you close the browser or if you do not use eAccess for two hours
