How do I access electronic resources from off-campus?

Utah Asia Campus faculty and students may initiate searches for material via the library's catalog: USearch. Requests can be made for books and other items in print and physical format held in the Marriott Library. If the physical materials are not currently available within the Marriott Library, they will be purchased via Suggest A Purchase (if available at a reasonable cost), added to the collection, and then shipped directly to the person requesting the item.  We cannot borrow books from other libraries to send to Korea. Requests will be denied for books that are unavailable or not obtainable for purchase at a reasonable cost.

• Items can be checked out through your library account

• Items include:
  • audiovisual materials and multimedia, such as DVD's, videogames, CD's, etc
