Off-Campus Access

For Journal Articles and Other Resources

For immediate access to journal articles and other resources, use the library's databases to search for articles and catalogs to search for books. The WWU Locate catalog searches only for items at WWU, while the MOBIUS OpenRS catalog searches a large number of Missouri academic and public libraries.

Note: You will be asked for your WWU username and password. If you do not know your credentials, contact the UIT Help Desk. If you have any questions about using the library resources, use the Ask a Librarian form.

Requesting Books

To request books that Dulany Library owns, complete the book request form or call the Circulation Desk (573-592-4289). Provide the title, author, and call number of the book you wish to request, your student ID number and your contact information.

To request books from any other Missouri academic library that you would like to pick up at Dulany Library, find the title you wish to request in the MOBIUS OpenRS catalog. Look for the "Place a hold" button, and choose William Woods University as your institution. 

Renew Library Items

In most cases, you can renew your library materials online through the WWU Locate catalog. Log in to your account and request renewals on the items you wish to keep longer. You will find out immediately if your request for renewal was successful. If you have questions about how to do this, contact the Circulation Desk (573-592-4289).

Visiting Other Missouri Academic Libraries

You have the option of visiting other MOBIUS libraries for direct borrowing of books. A list of participating institutions can be found here. The guidelines listed below will help your visit go as smoothly as possible:

  • Before you go, contact the Circulation Desk (573-592-4289) to verify that your account is in good standing and that your unique ID is set up. If your library account has a balance or if your unique ID is not set up, the other library will not be able to check out anything to you.
  • Take your William Woods University ID card. 
  • Remember that although each MOBIUS library abides by the MOBIUS Interlibrary Lending Policy, each institution may have different policies related to which materials you may access or circulate and what equipment you may use.
