Material ConneXion can be accessed through an online login available from: https://www.materialconnexion.online/database/
A Material ConneXion account is required in order to access this resource.
A user can follow the instructions below in order to set an account up for themselves:
Enter your NCAD email address and password at this point. As you don't have a password set yet, just enter any six characters here in order to advance to the next stage.
If you don't see a login screen, it may be because you are using the campus Wi-fi and Material Connexion is automatically providing you access. Try again when you're connected to a different network.
Assuming all went well, select 'National College of Art and Design' from the drop-down menu on the next page.
Fill in the registration details it then asks you for (including whatever you want your actual password to be), and hit submit when ready.
Now you're registered to access the database from anywhere.
