On-campus student? E-Learning student? UAS libraries provide many online resources for the convenience of all students. As you use this guide, you'll notice that it includes information about searching and finding both print and online resources. All students have access to our electronic resources. You will need your UA username and password to access our e-resources, like eBooks and the full text of articles online from anywhere off-campus . If you need to retrieve or reset your UA username and password, visit ELMO.
If you are an e-Learner, see our brief information on getting books and finding articles from the Ketchikan Campus Library, and our research help for students pageto learn more about how to get the materials you need for your research and study.
If you find a citation for an article that is not available to you online, you have options to get that article.
1. Ask a librarian for help at libket@alaska.edu. Librarians are experts in finding articles for you.
2. Check our Journal Title Search (see link below) - search for a journal, magazine, or newspaper to find out if the library has access.
3. Interlibrary Loan - we can order an article for you from another library - this normally takes several days to receive the article. There is no fee to UAS students for Interlibrary Loans.
Never pay for an article on a publisher's website - ask a librarian for help and you'll save both time and money.
