OpenAthens FAQs

Reference managers

Your reference manager will work as normal. However, if you use a tool such as RefWorks, EndNote or Zotero, you will need to update links that contain ezproxy.auckland.ac.nz.

Citation details such as author and title will remain the same, but you will need to update EzProxy links manually.
