Alumni, Standish & Windham Residents

Access to research databases

Due to vendor licensing agreements, remote access to library subscription databases is only available to current students, faculty, and staff. However, alumni may use these resources in-house from the library's computers. Also, please note that all Maine residents have free access (from home, work, etc.) to quality online resources through the Digital Maine Library.
