Alumni Library Card
If you would like to borrow books and DVDs from McKillop Library’s circulating collections, please register for an alumni library card at the Information and Library Services Desk located inside the main entrance. Books may be borrowed for one month, DVDs may be borrowed for one week, and both may be renewed for additional time.
Your alumni library card does not allow you access to our HELIN partner libraries or their collections and cannot be used to request material through interlibrary loan. Alumni should contact their local public library to explore outside borrowing options.
On-Campus Research Access
You may visit McKillop Library and either use your own computer or use a library computer to access our research databases. (Please ask a library staff member for assistance signing onto a library computer)
Off-Campus Research Access Unfortunately we are unable to provide off-campus database access to alumni but there are a number of free databases provided by The State of RI and the U.S. Government to assist with your ongoing research efforts. (*Note: you must be using a computer located in the state of Rhode Island to access databases provided by the state)
Salve Regina University's online repository,
Digital Commons @ Salve Regina contains digitized copies of scholarly papers, theses, dissertations, and collections that may be access from on and off campus.
Printing in the Library
McKillop Library will provide free printing to alumni within reason. Please ask a library staff member for printing assistance.
Please contact the Circulation Department at (401) 341-2291 if you have additional questions.
