Simplified access to books and articles <\/b><\/p>\n
Royal Roads University Library is excited to introduce Lean Library Access, a helpful new browser extension (add-on) that gives you quick and simple online access to academic articles, journals and databases licensed by RRU Library\u2014anywhere, anytime. Whether you\u2019re on or off-campus, Lean Library Access connects you directly to materials the library has access to. Spend less time searching for sources and more time doing your work. Install the extension, select your institution, and you\u2019re ready to go.<\/p>\n
How does it work? <\/b><\/p>\n
The Lean Library Access extension identifies when you are on an academic website that contains material licensed by RRU Library and notifies you with a pop-up. (Prefer to skip the pop-ups? You can change your settings to automate your access.) A single click opens the site; log in with your RRU username and password for access. If RRU doesn\u2019t seem to have access to the item you\u2019re looking at, the Lean Library Access extension will automatically check for open access versions or redirect you to our Interlibrary Loan Request Form.<\/p>\n
