UWM students, faculty & staff with Internet access can connect to most of the Libraries' subscription databases & electronic journals from off-campus (a few titles are licensed for on-campus or in-library use only).

After clicking on a database or resource, you will be prompted to log-in using your ePanther ID and password.

Confused about your 11 digit ID number? You may use the Campus ID Finder to have this 11-digit number sent to your email account.

So your professor told you a reading for class is on reserve. The item you're looking for will either be online (E-Reserve) or at the library Reserve desk (1st floor East Wing).

To find where it is, simply click the Course Reserve link. You can search by instructor's name, department, or course.

After your course, check the location of the item. If the location says something like this, you're in luck, just click on the link to view the readings online. If you're off-campus you'll have to log in with your Epanther ID and password.

If you see something like this below, you'll have to come to the library to actually get the physical version of the item.

Make sure you look at the status to make sure it is available for you when you come in. Reserve items may be checked out for either 2 hours, 2 days, or 1 week. Just write down the call number and go the first floor of the East Wing. The Reserve desk will be straight ahead when you walk in.
