Library Services for Distance Students

The UAS Egan Library is available to you, whether you are a local or distance UAS student and the resources are endless!  The library has a wide-ranging print collection and comprehensive online resources that are available to registered UAS students in any location, 24 hours a day.

By using the OneSearch database, you can find books, ebooks, and articles on many topics. You can access OneSearch on the Egan Library home page. If you need tips on database searching, use this research guide compiled by your friendly librarians.
