Services for Online Students

We support online and off-campus students with our digital collections and remote research services.

Find Online Resources

Borrowing

The vast majority of our library collections are available online; find them using the library general search. If we do not have what you are looking for, you can request a free copy of articles and book chapters using UNE Interlibrary Loan.

Print Books

Your local public library can be a good resource for books which are not available online. If they do not have what you need, ask them about interlibrary loan services. If you prefer, we will mail print books that UNE owns with the understanding that you are responsible for returning them by the due date, using UPS or registered mail, and with insurance covering the full replacement cost. Books borrowed from another library can’t be sent off-campus. Contact Collections Librarian Kate Harold for details.

Worldcat

Search WorldCat, the world’s largest network of library content and services, to find books near you. Enter your zip code to see local libraries that have a copy of the books you need. Library borrowing policies vary; we recommend that you contact the library before traveling to borrow an item.
