Elegant solution to login requirements?

Unfortunately, not all vendors and journal publishers are allowing 
access via IP authentication.  

What are people doing to provide access to those databases (like certain
ejournals) that require all users to authenticate with a login and
password?  

I was considering putting the login and password info on an internal 
page that could only be accessed by users who are on-site or who have
been authenticated by our proxy server.  This would work, but it's 
a little awkward, to say the least.
