As is the case with all academic institutions, database providers restrict access to currently enrolled students, faculty and staff and we are bound by our licensing agreements to adhere to these restrictions. For that reason, you unfortunately cannot use the library subscription databases.
However, you are able to access freely accessible resources and the link below provides our Open Access databases which you may find handy:
A-Z Databases: Open Access (libguides.com)
Another suggestion is to contact local colleges and universities in your area to see if they are open to the public. Many academic libraries offer on-site access to their electronic resources as well as borrowing privileges of physical materials (often for a fee.)
Please refer to the Saybrook Alumni Library Services instructional guide for more information about open access, dissertations and alternative library options.
