IP Automatic Access Enhancement
IP Automatic Access customers (those who do not use IDs or passwords to log
in) will be prompted for their email address before accessing content on any
of the CCH research networks. This will allow for a consistent research experience
each time they use CCH.
Firms/Companies: Users will only have to enter their email
address the first time they log in to CCH, unless their cookies are deleted,
or they try accessing CCH from a different computer.
Schools/Libraries: Users will be asked to enter their email
address each time they log in to CCH because computers may be shared in the
computer lab, library or other public area.
Entering an email address into the system ensures that their preferences will
be saved from session to session along with any customization to the “My
CCH” tab. Therefore, any search options that are set, such as searching
using Boolean connectors or highlighting search terms within the search results,
will be retained each time—they won’t have to spend time resetting
the preferences during each session. The “My CCH” workspace can
also be customized with their User Name, Recent Searches, Favorite Searches,
Favorite Publications, and Keep Lists.
If you would like to request that we do not enable this feature for your account
or have other questions/comments, please contact CCH Subscription Support
Services at 800-344-3734.
