Most of the databases Yale subscribes to can be used from offcampus. You must install VPN in order to use them.  Here's how.

Once the VPN is installed most databases can be searched without a password.  The one exception to this is OneSource.

As a Yale MBA- E student you have access to hundreds of databases from school and home, once you've installed VPN (see Start Here tab).  This means that you can read the thousands of articles right from your computer. (there are some exceptions, but they are rare).  The most frequently used databases for journal articles are:
