Remote Library Help
We offer a number of ways to request help while off campus, including virtual one-on-one research appointments. Find access to all options on our Ask the Library page. 

Remote Access To Resources
Access and search the majority of online resources using OneSearch.

As a response to our remote campus, we have changed our catalog to enable online full-text books and articles to appear first in search results.

For a full list of the over 175 databases that we offer visit our Databases page. 

Remote Support For Instruction

Open Educational Resources (OER) can be easily integrated into your Blackboard course. Check out our guide or email Helen Lane for more information.

Faculty Tool Box
The Library Faculty Toolbox, also available through the Blackboard Library Community site, is a kit for faculty engaged in online instruction and the use of Blackboard. Learn how to embed and link to the FIT Library's online content and services.
