Off campus to study abroad? You are still connected to the resources at the Christopher Center! You have access to almost all of Christopher Center’s databases and full text content while off campus. As long as you have access to the internet, you can log into the databases using your Valpo username and password and access all the information you could from home. This includes over 100 databases such as Academic Search Premier, Lexis Nexis Academic, and JSTOR.

And, because all interlibrary loan articles are delivered electronically, you can request articles just as you would while in Valpo. Articles will be delivered to you online through your Illiad account and you will be notified of their arrival via e-mail.

Did you find an article that is held in print at the Christopher Center? While you are studying off campus we will deliver those articles to you electronically! But you have to let us know that you're studying abroad before taking advantage of this service. For the inside scoop, see http://www.valpo.edu/library/ill/docdelivery.html.

Unfortunately, at this time we do not have the ability to ship interlibrary loan books internationally, so interlibrary loan service for study abroad students is limited to articles.

Library Assistance
If you would like assistance from the library while you're abroad, you can contact us via e-mail or instant messaging. Both are available through our Ask Us! page: http://www.valpo.edu/library/ref/question.html.

Or, contact a subject-specific librarian directly! For the inside scoop, see http://www.valpo.edu/library/liaison.html.

READ Posters
We would love to feature you on a READ poster while you are off campus. Send a digital image of you with your favorite book while punting on the Cam or climbing up the Great Wall to Becky.Byrum (at) valpo.edu to take part in this program.
