Connecting from off Campus

Subscription Databases and Indexes: When you click on a subscription database from off campus you will be asked to supply your user name and password. Enter the same user name and password that you use for your other St. Mary's accounts--e-mail, WebTools, Blackboard, etc. If you have access problems call Academic Computing at (507) 457-7800 or the Reference Desk at (507) 457-1562.

MnPALS Library Catalog: You will be able to search the MnPALS catalog freely off campus, but if you want to place an item on hold, check your borrowing record, or perform other personalized tasks you will need to log on. The fourteen digit bar code on the bottom of your Saint Mary's ID card is your "user name" ( begins with 235) and your last name is your "password" (or the first eight letters of your last name if you registered before June 20, 2005).

netLibrary: e-books at Saint Mary's can be accessed directly through the netLibrary site and they are also cataloged in MnPALS. To use e-books off campus you must set up an account while you are on campus. It's easy to do--just click on "create a free account" from netLibrary's main page and decide what you would like to use for a password and user name. Once you are registered your account can be accessed on or off campus. You may browse a book or check it out for exclusive use for four hours. Books can be searched by Table of Contents or by keyword. Any notes or bookmarks you create when accessing a book are saved for you as well. Partial printing of the material is allowed.

Interlibrary Loan: To order materials from other libraries (books or articles from journals) please use this form. For more information go to Borrowing from Other Libraries: Interlibrary Loan.

More Questions: If you have a question about accessing library resources call the Reference Desk at (507) 457-1502 or e-mail a Reference Librarian.
