Sometimes the paper copy is held by one of the libraries and sometimes the electronic version is the only one available. The Library provides access to the Internet at computers throughout the libraries. The World Wide Web is accessible through Internet browsers that operate in a multimedia hypertext environment. It provides access to millions of files and databases, including access to several thousand databases, library catalogs, discussion group archives, museums, etc., all of which are meant for academic use. Thus, during peak periods, casual browsers may be asked to relocate to CIS labs.
Online services allow access to several hundred different databases at varying prices.
There is no charge for most services, but you must be a current student or faculty member working on a class assignment to use this service . The library does not charge the end-user for access to these online resources when the data are used in relation to a class assignment. Only those databases not otherwise available to end-users are included in this offer. Other online services may be available at specific libraries on campus. The hours vary, and an appointment is advised, so check with the Library.
