Why can’t I access all of the Library’s databases from off campus as an alumnus or retiree?


MRU Library signs agreements with publishers and vendors that specify who is authorized to access each resource both on and off campus. In most cases, our licenses specify that only current MRU students and employees are eligible for off campus access.

However, alumni are able to access a select list of resources that do allow such use. Alumni with questions about their access can complete the following form for assistance.

Alumni, retirees, and other library guests can access almost all Library licensed resources from workstations located within the Riddell Library and Learning Centre. Please see staff at the service desk to request temporary log in credentials.
