How do I access Thomson One Database?

You can only access ThomsonOne using Internet Explorer. Customize your Internet Explorer settings using the following instructions to allow access to ThomsonOne.com


Answer

Step One - Add IE tab to your Chrome Browser

By installing the appropriate IE Tab extension, you can add that functionality to Chrome for either PC or MAC.

After you've installed the extension configure IE Tab for Chrome. You do so by adding an Auto URL filter that matches the page:

  • Right-click on the IE Tab action icon and select "Options"
  • Look for the "Auto URLs" options box.
  • Enter a filter that matches the URL you want to automatically open with IE Tab: https://guides.lib.purdue.edu/db/banker*
