Working and studying from home, with the University Library

Almost all staff and students are currently working from home because of RU measures due to the coronavirus. We provide some tips on how to easily access the academic literature in the digital library.

Off campus access

Go to the University Library's homepage to access e-journals, e-books, online articles and databases. When you reach academic content for which we have a subscription you need to log in, once-only, with your RU credentials. Check out other possibilities such as the Lean Library browser extension.

Subject-related information

Looking for subject-related information? Please use the Library Subject guides. Here you will also need to log in with your RU credentials as soon as you reach academic literature or databases to which the Library is subscribed.

Database manuals

The University Library has E-learning modules to help you search in databases and on how to use literature reference managers. Check the complete overview of E-learning modules.

Questions?
