Victoria College
VC Students use their SAM email account username and password to access databases off campus. Instructions can be found at the SAM registration page. SAM accounts are created before the first class day and expire at the end of each semester. Contact the VC Help Desk for assistance at 361-582-2509 or email at helpdesk@victoriacollege.edu. You must activate the account before you can access the library from off-campus.
Students who are enrolled in any type of cooperative program with VC need to contact the Access Services Librarian with their name, SS# and which program they are enrolled in to see if they may obtain access off campus.
