I can't log in to the ClinicalKey website

The process of logging in to the ClinicalKey website can be a bit confusing. If you are experiencing issues, try the following steps.

  • If you have not previously registered with ClinicalKey, you will need to register to create an account.
    Note: Use your LTU email address (e.g. 123456@students.latrobe.edu.au) when registering.

  • If you had registered with ClinicalKey while on LTU's network (e.g. on-site at a campus), then connect to the University's VPN and then try logging in again.

  • If the login page is not showing a green bar under the header saying 'Welcome! We recognize your network - La Trobe University', then you will need to identify your institution as La Trobe before logging in.

    To do this:

    1. Select 'Log in via your institution', which is listed under 'More options'.
    2. Type 'La Trobe' in the search field and then select 'La Trobe University'.
  • If none of the previous steps have resolved the issue and you have a ClinicalKey account, we recommend chatting directly with them to troubleshoot any queries relating to your account.

    A 'Live chat' option is available in the bottom-right corner of the ClinicalKey login page.

If you are still unable to log in to ClinicalKey, please report the issue to the Library and a member of staff will assist you.
