You can borrow items from other libraries if CMU Libraries does not have what you're looking for. ILLiad is our Interlibrary Loan system. Simply log into the Interlibrary Loan system, fill out a registration form if its your first time using the system and then click on a New Request link in the left hand column.
If you have citations for specific articles, check the Journal Search to see if we subscribe to the journal that contains the article. If the CMU library collection doesn't have what you're looking for, you can request an article scan via Interlibrary Loan.
Reference librarians are here to help you - so please contact us with any questions!
In general, when off campus, if you are accessing library resources via the library homepage, or any CMU Libraries website including this guide, you should be prompted to sign in using your CMU credentials to access full text resources. However, for a few resources or to troubleshoot access when you are off-campus, you may need to connect using the VPN client as described on our Accessing the Library from Off-campus page.
If using the VPN to access the library, make sure you are using the Full VPN.
