Access to One Search

Alumni can use One Search to search for resources. Non-registered alumni can also use one search but don't have access to the 'Library Account' functions.

To access your Library Account register as an alumni member (enable you to save searches and add results to your list of favourites). 

Note this does not give you full-text access to all of our subscribed resources, but you will be able to use One Search to find and access any Open Access resources we link to through One Search (see below).

Open Access Through One Search

A large number of the resources used at JCU are Open Access resources, see how to use One Search to find Open Access resources.

Open Access resources are freely available, scholarly sources including journal articles and books.

Alternate Access Options

Subscription resources

The State Library of Queensland also has access to databases and membership is free. All Australian states and territories will provide similar access through your local public library membership.

National Library of Australia provides access to subscription eresources to registered members (membership is free and available to Australian residents).

Open Access resources
