Services for Online Students

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

Finding Resources

Use our Getting Started guide for an overview of how to efficiently find the resources you need and learn to create an effective search strategy.

Online Resources

The vast majority of our books, articles, videos and other resources are available online. Search from the library homepage or select from one of our research databases.

If you aren’t sure where to start, choose your program, major or subject from our Research by Subject Guides for recommended databases, books, journals, websites and more.

Interlibrary Loan

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

S earch 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.
