Counseling: New Student Guide

How can I obtain articles, books, or videos from the library?

General step-by-step instructions are linked from our Request Books or Articles page. See below for selected examples.

Be aware that problems sometimes come up when trying to request items, often due to various computer systems trying to communicate with each other. Please contact us if you have questions.

If I find an article listed in a database but there's no full-text link, what do I do?

In most of our databases, you will probably see a link called "Article Linker" as in the example below. Click the Article Linker link to see how to obtain the full-text. For more information, visit our Article Linker guide.

How can I borrow materials listed in Webster's library catalog? (U.S. only)

We will send any Webster/Eden-owned circulating materials (those with a Status of "Available") to our US extended campus students, faculty, and staff with a return mailer.  In the library catalog, do a search and bring up the full record for an item. Click on the “Request” link. You will be asked to enter your name and your Webster identification number followed by the letters “EWL” (e.g. 1234567ewl). Next you will see a drop-down list of pickup locations. Choose “Webster Univ US Sites”.  This option will tell us to send the item to you at the address we have on record.
