Simplify usage of DocumentWeb for Firefox
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008The Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Ludwig-Maximilian-University Munich (LMU) offers free access to lots of journals. If you want to use this service from outside the university network, you have to use the DocumentWeb. This services is a kind of a proxy provided by the LRZ (computing center).
All you have to do is to Drag And Drop this button:
to you Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar. Lets say you visit the page http://prola.aps.org/ and want to view certain publications. Just click on you new bookmark and you’ll (hopefully) will be redirected to the corresponding DocWeb-proxy page. That’s all. You will need to enter your MyTum account info once per session (user: YourName@mytum.de, password: YourPassword).
