Think the Library is only for on-campus students? Think again.

You may never set foot in a campus library, but that doesn’t mean the Library’s support isn’t available to you. In fact, many Library services are delivered online and can be accessed wherever you study. 

Resources at your fingertips 

Whether you’re starting an assignment or accessing your course readings, the Library’s e-first policy means most resources are available online. 

Access all your course readings from the Reading list, and find databases for your study area using our Library guides. Databases are searchable collections of academic resources, including peer-reviewed journals, ebooks, newspapers, standards and more. 

And to make your online experience as seamless as possible, make sure you: 

  • set up Google Scholar to enable Full Text@Griffith links so you can access articles from Library subscriptions 
  • install the LibKey Nomad browser extension to connect to Library-subscribed content while searching the web. 

Real people, real help 

Need help finding sources, referencing correctly or improving your academic writing? Library specialists can help with these skills and more. 

Help can be provided over email, and if needed, you can book an online meeting to discuss one-on-one. Reaching out early gives you more time to put advice into practice before your assignment is due. 

Looking for advice from a fellow student? Study Skills Peers (SSP)—experienced students with proven academic skills—can give you hints and tips based on their experience to build your study skills. If you are studying online, SSP support is available via email.  

Your Library, wherever you study 

Whether you’re studying across town or across the country, the Library’s resources, support and services are available wherever you learn. Contact the Library to find out more.
