ORU databases, including full text articles, journals and ebooks, are fee-based resources and, as such, are generally restricted to ORU students, faculty and staff. For off-campus access it is necessary to login with your ORU Novell username and password when prompted.

As part of the ORU community you have an electronic library available 24/7 from on or off campus, including 28,000+ full text periodicals, 90+ dynamic databases, ebook collections with more than 56,000 ebooks, eaudiobooks and more.

Your electronic library also includes a variety of unique and useful user friendly database personal information management tools--save, write notes, highlight, get citations, text-to-speech/download to MP3 format, create web links and more, according to your needs and preferences. (See the Library Research Guides.)

To Log in from Off-Campus:

1. Go to the Library page  www.oru.edu/library/
    
2. Click the Off-Campus Access bar or the link at the top of the page.
   
     
    
   
3. Enter your Novell username and password in the pop-up window.

Once you are logged in, simply choose a resource on the library web page and begin your research. Or, select a Library Research Guide for research suggestions, a list of databases, helpful tips and more.

Note: The Library Catalog and Library Research Guides do not require a password. However, if links to electronic resources are provided you will be prompted to log in.
