Why can't I access some resources on Creo?

While Creo participates in the Open Archives Initiative, SAE University College reserves the right to restrict access to certain collections in Creo (and the resources within) to nominated users.

If you encounter a resource page that contains only this upwards right diagonal arrow with text, link to fulll text  button, you should be able to access this resource, as it is available outside of Creo on the Internet. If you discover that you cannot access this resource, i.e., the link is broken, please let us know at library@sae.edu.au. 

 

When encountering a resource page that has only this down arrow with Download text button, you may or may not be able to access this resource. If you are prompted to sign in and access is denied, you have not been assigned access to this resource. If you believe this is an error, please email library@sae.edu.au.

 

When encountering a resource page that has this down arrow with Download text and this download arrow with SAE users textbuttons, access has been restricted to current SAE students and staff only. The Download button will not work. If you are a current SAE University College or SAE Dubai student or staff member, please use the SAE Users button and follow the prompts. If you should have access but cannot, please email library@sae.edu.au.
