The library's contracts with our content providers limit usage of resources to currently enrolled students, faculty, staff, residents, preceptors, and supervisors.
We can assist alumni in locating resources, but there may be a copyright fee to obtain the full-text.
Occasionally we are able to help identify an institution local to the alumni that will provide access to their collections for walk-in users.
Optometrists in the Memphis area (locals and those traveling through) may come into the library to utilize our collections. Please let us know in advance if you want to come in and browse our resources!
Some larger institutions are able to negotiate access for alumni, so approaching an undergraduate institution may be beneficial.
