The Knight-Capron Library's databases are for the use of current students and employees of the University of Lynchburg. For current students and employees, the process to access the library's resources off-campus is much the same as it is on campus!  Simply navigate the library site as you normally would, and our systems will prompt you to log in with your Lynchburg credentials when needed. 

 

Our licensing does not allow us to provide remote access outside of current students and employees. Those living outside of the Central Virginia region may be able to find the desired access by contacting a local college or university library to inquire about in-house guest use of electronic databases. Additionally, we encourage you to look for publicly available resources, or check with your local public library for interlibrary loan services.

  1. Just to be clear, University of Lynchburg students and staff who live off- campus can access and use the databases, correct?

  2. Absolutely! Students and employees who live off campus can access library databases through the library website - you'll be prompted to sign in with your Lynchburg Credentials when you click on one of our article or database links. After signing in the first time, everything should work just as it would for students and employees on campus!
