Apps for KCU Patrons

Access - by McGraw-Hill (AccessMedicine)
1. Click on this link: Access Medicine.
2. Click to "Sign In" at the top of the website and then create a free "MyAccess" profile.
3. Fill in the online form and create a username/password.
4. Download the app at the App Store or Google Play.
5. Enter the username/password that you just created.

To keep your My Access account active, you must sign in every 90 days through the link on the library website.

Clinical Key App
1. Click on this link: Clinical Key. You might need to login with your KCU network username and password if you are off campus or accessing through WiFi.
2. Click the "REGISTER" link in the upper right hand corner of the page and fill out the information. During this process you will create a username/password to be used just for Clinical Key.
3. Remote Access: In order to use the ClinicalKey and ClinicalPharmacology apps on your device, you will have to allow "Remote Access."

After you've registered for your account, you will see your name in the top right corner with a few icons. To allow "Remote Access," click on the menu icon (3 horizontal lines).
A black and gray box will appear on the right side of your screen. Click on the "Remote Access" link in the middle of the box.
You will be taken to a page that says "Apply for remote access." Enter the email address you used to create your Clinical Key account and then "Continue."
The next screen is a confirmation that an email has been sent to allow Remote Access.
Click the blue link in the email that says "Activate your remote access."
Continue with the rest of the steps to finish setting up your app.

4. Next, go to the App store or Google Play and search for the Clinical Key App and download to your device (free).
5. Then choose the "Clinical Key" (not "Clinical Key for Nursing") and enter the username/password that you created during your registration process.

You will need to log-in to ClinicalKey on campus through the library website every 30 days in order to maintain remote access. If you do not, your apps will not open and you will have to repeat the Remote Access steps in order to get access to your app again.

Clinical Pharmacology App

Download Elsevier's Clinical Pharmacology App from the App store or Google Play, and log in by creating an account at the Register link after you access the Clinical Pharmacology database from the library's website. You do not need a CP code, only your network username/password.

If the app is not opening, please go back up to the Remote Access steps above. Once you have allowed remote access, the app will work on your device.
