Distance Learning

Welcome

The ULM Library welcomes Gateway to Online Degrees students. Even if you're not in the Monroe area, you still have access to many library services as on-campus students. See our Off-Campus Access page to find out how to reach them.

Account Creation

Some databases require users to create accounts while on campus. We can create such accounts for you and send you the log in information. To do this, contact your reference librarian (liaison), preferably using your ULM email.

LALINC Cards

A LALINC card can allow you to borrow materials from academic libraries other than ULM's. The details will vary depending on which library you are borrowing from. To get one, fill out this LALINC card application. After you print it and fill it out, you may fax it to 318-342-1075 or mail it to:

Susan Allen, Circulation Dept.
University of Louisiana at Monroe, University Library
700 University Avenue
Monroe, LA 71209-0720

Contact Us

If you're not sure who to contact, just ask a librarian. Feel free to contact reference about anything. We are available by email and phone.

Government Publications

Many Government Publications are now available on-line for free. Follow the directions here to search for them in the Library catalog. There's also a wealth of information on the main USA.gov page.

More Help Elsewhere

Federal Depository Libraries are available everywhere in the country, as mandated by law. Besides those, however, there may be other resources in your local area that you may be able to use, such as public libraries and educational institutions.
