📚 NEW! EASIER OFF-CAMPUS ACCESS TO LIBRARY RESOURCES

Accessing Sonoran University Library databases and online resources from off campus just got easier!

Beginning October 5, 2026, the Library moved to Sonoran University's Microsoft Single Sign-On (SSO) for off-campus access. This replaces the previous Library login method and lets you use the same Sonoran credentials you already use for Microsoft 365, Canvas, and MySonoran.

How Does It Work?

When accessing a Library resource from off campus:

  1. Start with the resource link on the Library's MySonoran pages.
  2. Enter your Sonoran University email address.
  3. Enter your Sonoran email account password.
  4. Complete your usual multi-factor authentication (MFA) request.
  5. You'll be connected to the Library resource.

Even better: If you're already signed into Microsoft 365, Canvas, or MySonoran in the same browser session, your authentication may carry over when you open a Library resource, meaning you may not need to sign in again.

On Campus? Nothing Changes!

The new login process is for off-campus access only. When you're on campus, continue accessing Library resources as usual.

The change provides a simpler, more familiar sign-in experience while also improving security for off-campus access to Sonoran's Library resources.
