COVID-19: Continuity of Library Services

We wanted to remind you of a few steps you can take to make sure you have continued access to library resources even if you can’t physically be on campus. We’ll be updating this with additional tips and resources, so check back.

Off Campus Access

Make sure you can log in to the Flagship EZProxy server. This uses your UVID and password. If you are experiencing issues, try Password Self Service, and our troubleshooting guide.

You can log in to the library catalog before searching to ensure you are seeing all available resources–some of them don’t show up unless you’re on campus or logged in.

Research Help

The library has 24/7 chat reference service. Ask a Librarian links are available from the library website, catalog, and selected databases.

Librarian Research Appointments: I will be available for remote consultations via phone, email, or online (e.g. Zoom).

You can search for ebooks in the library catalog. (That link will show you all the ebooks available, but you will have to change the search to be your topic).

The Arrupe College Research Guide also has a new COVID-19 Resources Page: https://libguides.luc.edu/arrupe/covid-19
