Having trouble accessing MU Library materials from our website? Here are some tips to get you connected!

  • Always access materials via the MU Library website. If your instructor has linked to our resources via eCampus, they should have linked to them via the library website. If they have not, please let them know!
  • When you are NOT on campus, you will be asked to validate your credentials by logging in using your MU email and password. 
  • Access to the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times requires initial signup using a unique link. Note: only an MU email address will permit you to successfully create an account.
