Orientation and training for staff at partner institutions
Staff at partner institutions are able to request one-on-one training in the use of CSU library resources and services, by contacting one of the faculty liaison staff or via book-a-librarian.
Library services for students at partner and affiliated institutions are described in the Information for Offshore Students, with detailed information about how to access these services available from the Library Orientation toolbox.
Electronic resources provided by the Library are accessible to students at all partner institutions. Students can use the Library catalogue and Journal databases to locate eBooks, online journals and full text journal articles, and staff are able to create links to selected electronic resources that they can provide to students via CSU Interact.
Online (full text journals)
Students can browse, search and access articles from more than 60,000 online journals and newspapers. Staff are also able to create links to selected journal articles, that can be supplied to students - enabling them to directly access those articles.
