Who has access to online library databases?
Answer
Due to licensing restrictions, off-campus access to databases is generally reserved only for current LSU faculty, staff, and students. On-campus access should be available to anyone connected to the LSU Wireless network. Because public patrons do not have access to LSU Wi-Fi, LSU Library houses a few public access computers in room 241. Non-affiliates and public patrons who are able to visit in person will have full access to databases using these computers. We also have a list of open access databases that should be accessible to everyone from anywhere (see below). The online library catalog is also open to everyone.
