Business : Student & Alumni Access

Access to Databases:

Most (but not all) of our databases are available to visitors (both alumni and community users) for onsite access. That means you are welcome to come to the library building and access most of our databases from the public computers on the 2nd floor or using Guest WIFI on your own device.  However, visitors won't be able to access databases remotely (outside of PSU IP range) due to license restrictions. 

We also encourage visitors to use their local public libraries. For example, Multnomah County Library has many similar databases (e.g., Business Source Premier, ReferenceUSA), but also unique business resources that we don't have (e.g., ABI/INFORM, Mergent Online, Mergent Intellect, SimplyAnalytics). Most of these databases can be used remotely with a free public library card.
