The free Libby app provides access to other eMaterials from UW Libraries and all Wyoming state libraries.
UW students can request access to materials through the Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service. ILL allows UW students, faculty, and staff to request books, journal articles, media, and other materials regardless of where it is available.
Online and Distance students may have physical materials like books or DVDs mailed to their house with a free return label or have e-materials emailed to them in PDF format.
