http://brlmship.cit.act.edu.au/ipac20/ipac.jsp?profile=
COMMON QUESTIONS ASKED Can I access the resources from home?Yes as long as you have an internet connection. But remember if the resource has “available within CIT only” you need to be physically at a CIT branch.
I am having trouble trying to access the online resources and I get a message telling me I cannot connect at this time or that there are too many concurrent users.
Too many people may be trying to access the resources at once. Wait a little while then try again.
(CIT, 2012)
REMEMBER: Each resource has help features or tutorials to show you how to use the product. (CIT, 2012)
