Administrator username/password explained

An administrative username and password  is needed to get access to your institution’s site license account at http://www.nature.com/libraries

This username and password is NOT needed for your users to access our journal content because your users access is granted by IP recognition.

This log-in pertains to administrative access to your current site license subscriptions, IP ranges, usage statistics, etc.


Your username and password were created by the person at your institution who first registered your institutional account. He/she should have a record of it in their email or in their personal records.
